Friday Humor

I saw this on a tweet from @funnyordie and I laughed so hard, people started looking at me like I was crazy.  Oh, I was in the store by myself when this happened.

Eat Cassava to Have Twins

I recently watched an episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta where Porsha Williams Stewart married to Kordell Stewart retired NFL player (who might also be gay/bisexual) mentioned eating a special type of potato to have twins.  I of course had to Google this information and found that eating Cassava potatoes can increase your chances of having twins.  This information is based off a tribe in West Africa in Nigeria called the Yoruba.  The Yoruba have the highest twining rate in the world.   It is speculated that the high incidence of twins comes from a high consumption of a specific type of yam (cassava) containing a natural phytoestrogen which may stimulate the ovaries to release an egg from each side. Phytoestrogen, an estrogen compound that increases a woman's follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and may induce a higher rate of ovulation.  I recently went on a search to find the cassava and did not have much luck in finding the raw potato.  I did however find these other sources of cassava.

The Boba Tea is a milk tea with tapioca balls in the bottom.  The tapioca balls are made from the starch of the cassava root.  The tea was actually really good.  I was pleasantly surprised.
Saw these at the local Farmer's Market.  
But since the cassava has high levels of phytoestrogen which is supposedly the cause of multiple egg release finding other food sources with phytoestrogen can possibly give you the same effect.  Such as soy or this yuca potato I found that is supposed to be very similar to the cassava potato.

If you are looking for sources of phytoestrogen I would try flax seeds, oil seeds, soy beans, tofu, whole grains, walnuts (nuts), herbs like black cohosh, dong quai, alfalfa, mexican wild yam, ginseng, and wild clover.  I should also mention that from doing my research I found numerous resources stating that the flora of the intestinal tract must be in a healthy balance for the phytoestrogens to be effective.  That means eating plenty of pro/pre biotics like yogurt to get the gastrointestinal tract balanced and staying away from sugary,high fat and  fried foods.  The phytoestrogens also need to be at high levels in your system.  You can't eat cassava one day and hope to have twins it must be daily and well before starting to get pregnant.

If anyone decides to increase their intake of phytoestrogens and gets pregnant with twins please, please share your story with me.  Does anyone know someone that ate cassava and had twins? Do you think this will work? Let me know.


Happy Baby Making,

Real Housewives of Atlanta Kenya Moore's Fake Relationship

If you were like me and watched the Real Housewives of Atlanta episode last night and became confused about the way Kenya Moore threw herself at every available and unavailable guy (Apollo Nida, Phaedra Parks' husband) in front of her boyfriend Walter Jackson during a trip to Anguilla.  My first thought was this relationship is FAKE.  There is no way a man would just sit by while his girlfriend threw herself at every guy in Anguilla.  On top of the fact that every time the couple are together she is pressuring him to marry her and give her some babies which comes off as desperate.

In a recent interview with V-103′s “Frank and Wanda Morning Show" Walter admits their relationship was fake and Kenya asked him to play her boyfriend on the show.  Walter did admit they dated three years ago for three months and he agreed to play her beau for 15 minutes of fame.  See the clips courtesy of Straight for the A.

Walter also admitted that he was there because she started telling people that he was gay and it was not true.  He also seems to think that she started the rumor because he wouldn't marry her and he was surprised at how she kept bring up the m-word.

Why would Kenya get a fake boyfriend? Did she not get the memo that you don't have to be married to be a housewife? Also is Kenya a little loca? Because the way she acts on the show does not seem normal.



Real or Fake?

What you think Real or Fake relationship? What do you think about Kenya and her behavior on the show?

Real Housewives of Miami Relationship Doom

If anyone was as curious as I was to see if Karent Sierra's boyfriend Rodolfo Jimenez was cheating on her keep reading.  I went on the internet to find the article that Cuban Barbie, Alexia Echevarria had as proof of foul play.  My question is this relationship real, fake or a case of cheating boyfriend?

**As a side note Alexia Echevarria husband is supposedly gay which came out on an episode of Real Housewives of Miami.  True or Fake?**


As you can tell from this photo of Rodolfo that he is definitely kissing a girl but it is not Karent.  The woman is Ana Belena and they met on "Good Night America" filmed in Mexico.  In the article Ana claims that they are dating and have been for a month (based on time of the interview).

What do you guys think about Karent relationship with Rodolfo? Would you try and ignore gossip about your man or ask for the evidence?
