It’s no secret. I LOVE TO COOK. I love to feed people. Our kitchen is a magnet for our friends and family when we gather. We dance, eat and make some of our best memories in my kitchen. I worked in restaurants for more than 2 decades and learned so much about food and flavor and bring that experience to my own kitchen now.

Haseya Beauty

 

Mother of four and morning television news anchor I have been waking up in the middle of the night for more than two decades. I have relied on make-up over the years to transform my wake-up face to a TV face and the use of strip lashes is part of the magic. Frustrated over finding the perfect lash to use on TV, I set out to find lashes that would work for all women. Check out my favorite lashes and make-up tips.

Myla

Children’s Book

“Shally is a Morning News Anchor, Award-winning Journalist, Wife, and Mother to four children. Recently, she added author to her list of accomplishments. Shally often uses her media platform, both on-air and on social media, to share her life experiences and challenges. Shally was bullied in school and even as an adult, which motivated her to write her story for families and children in hopes of inspiring them to find their light and shine it bright.”

Myla Caterpillars Become Butterflies’ is a story about a young girl, Myla, who struggled with fitting in and being teased for her appearance. Myla often felt alone and left out due to the bullying she endured throughout her schooling years. Her Mother comforted her and reminded her that we are all on our own journey to spread our wings and fly. Myla’s confidence grew over time, and she realized that with love, kindness, hard work, and dedication, she could find her wings and fly like a butterfly. This book is a perfect read for children struggling with bullying or adults who have experienced the same.

Shally’s daughter, Shyla, who was the inspiration for the main character Myla, loves dolls and considers them to be her friends. As a gift to her and other children, Shally brought the character Myla to life as a doll that can be ordered with the book.
