She learned to cook on a wood fire stove and eventually made a name for herself as one of the only Black female chefs in NYC. Edna owned a restaurant, taught cooking classes and wrote both iconic cookbooks, the Edna Lewis Cookbook and The Taste of Country Cooking which are credited with reviving an interest in southern cuisine.

Each New Year, I re-read The 4 Agreements by Don M Each New Year, I re-read The 4 Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. I’ve been doing that for at least a decade. It’s a short book but a great reminder of how I want to show up on the planet. I used to make so many agreements with myself that I couldn’t keep up with them. I realized that when I missed the mark or made a mistake, I would play judge, victim and jury in my mind over and over again in a way that was harmful to my self-esteem. I read The Four Agreements at the top of every year to remind myself to keep it simple. Of all of the agreements, “Always do your best” resonates with me. I feel good about knowing that at the end of the day, I did my best. Not anyone else’s best but mine. Have you read it? Which agreement resonates with you? Anyone have any other suggestions for books that made an impact on you/your life? ❤️ #blackgirlseat #newyear #selfcare #selflove #selfreflection #bronxgirl #bronx #nyc #thefouragreements #blackownedbusiness #entrepeneur #saturdayvibes #motivation
