Monday, May 24th, 2010

The Afrolicious Network

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

It’s here! The Afrolicious Network is a collection of digital inspiration taken from blogs, photo, music, art, businesses and everything in between.  I don’t know what else to say besides it’s amazing the diversity of sites we’ve collected.  Check it out! Let me know if you like it if you hate it.

Special hugs and kisses and thanks go to Damon, Huong, Renina, Sarah of SarenzoBeads, Laide, Alaia, Tafari, @freeeafrica, and so many others who checked out the site and encouraged me to complete it.  You all rock! Thank you!
