Did you know...?
1)Stemming from a traumatic experience as a child at the zoo, Shani was afraid of giraffes.
2)If she could have had her way, Shani could have existed off of "Good" ice cream and juice.. and often did.
3)She loved playing video games. Super Mario Kart (Wii) was one of her favorite games.
4)If you ever had the privilege to view her website, you know she had a way with words like no other. But what you may not know was that she also was working several books (cookbook, fiction, life lessons).
5)Her favorite color was purple. She slightly detested pink but could deal with it when combined with other bright colors.
6)She was the one that gave me my Twitter name "Candii_Pants". She called me "Pants" in real life and was often the cause of other people doing it as well.
7)One of her favorite movies was "Groundhog Day".. which leads me to..
8)One of Shani's favorite holidays was "Groundhog Day". Because it marks 6 months until her birthday. That's usually when she would start planning the festivities.
9)Shani was always re-inventing herself. She got bored quickly and that definitely included her look. It was nothing for her to have black hair on Monday, and brown hair on Tuesday. Length was also subject to change at any moment.
10)She was an AWESOME cook! I mean the girl could put things together that you would have never thought of and they would be nirvana to the taste buds.
Today would have been my bestie, Shani's 36th Birthday. She always made a HUGE deal about her birthday. It would often be a celebration that lasted over a few days that included festivities with her hubby, her mom, and her girls. She considered her birthday her "New Year". Unfortunately, my sister left this earth on May 3, 2013. She isn't here to celebrate and though I hate it, I don't yet have it in me to celebrate without her. Not publicly anyway. I'll have my own private celebration.
I Love You Shani. <3
