Black-Owned businesses deserve your support. Currently, there is a wave of support for black-owned businesses, but I try to support black at all times. Whether it be small business started by old school mates or interesting products I find on Instagram, they deserve my support. Out of respect and the sheer courage, it takes to run a business in today’s climate, I am happy to repeatedly support.

Here a few small black-owned businesses that I supported before, during, and after it became cool to buy black.

Lokal Artison Foods  – The Only French Toast Seasoning You’ll Ever Need ™ – it’s your go-to for French Toast (even pancakes and waffles)!

I use this for everything (all over this blog & in Tabbalicious), from muffins to salmon.

---

Sip Tea House – All-natural Tea Blends, herbal smoke, elderberry syrup.

Though I keep a canister of Sip House tea on my desk at work, one of my first quarantine purchases was the elderberry syrup.

NATRIFLAIR – Handcrafted Skin Care Products, soaps, and body butters.

I have things including vintage aprons and everyday pearls. See T-Day apron above.
