Andresflava says Goodbye 2 DC and Hello to NYC
Well once again i am transitioning in my life for the better and i really thought that DC would be that place once I left South Florida on Dec 27, 2007 for DC at the time ending my relationship and moving to a place where I thought i could make a difference like I did in South Florida. Well that was not the case while in DC for me, Folks have said that I did but i honestly dont think I did while there and as of being in NYC for only 5 days I have accomplished alot those far and have already met alot of movers and shakers in the NYC arena. I will indeed cherish the bonds that I formed while in DC and I will look at the Good, The Bad and The Ugly in DC as yet another learning experience and step in my life as I continue to press forward and not stumble back.

Andresflava celebrates Black History Month
Ruth Graves Wakefield (1905-1977) invented chocolate chips (and chocolate chip cookies) in 1930. Wakefield ran the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Her new cookie invention was called the "Toll House Cookie." Her original cookies used broken-up bars of semi-sweet chocolate. Her cookbook, "Toll House Tried and True Recipes," was published in 1940.
The potato chip was invented in 1853 by George Crum. A African American chef. French fries were popular at the restaurant and one day a diner complained that the fries were too thick. Although Crum made a thinner batch, the customer was still unsatisfied. Crum finally made fries that were too thin to eat with a fork, hoping to annoy the extremely fussy customer. The customer was happy and potato chips were invented!

TBS show Are We There Yet? tackles gay story line
On the TBS sitcom, “Are We There Yet?” They recently tackled the issue of a semi-closeted gay football player named Cedric played by Maxx Brawer (full episode below). The football player was kind of leading on the daughter, who didn’t know he was gay. This prompted her concerned father to talk to the boy about coming out to his daughter. The father didn’t judge the boy, just warned him that not coming out would hurt his daughter which led the boy to come out to the daughter.
