Cooking Dinner with My Third Sister?!

[@natty144k]

Essence looks AMAZING at 50 years old... I think, throughout her career, she's always taken care of herself (physically).

[@reneejohnson9256]

She looks exactly the same! She's been acting for over 30 yrs! Looks great

[@nalynanadz5958]

50?! What?

[@lindagithaiga1974]

Wait,she is 50😲

[@MarsVee123]

If shes 50 she has to be a vampire 🧛‍♀

[@disneytoysr4fun975]

I've always wanted to see Essense and Tia and/or Tamera working together.. This is good, this is very good...

Oh my goodness those meals look sooo divine and simple enough that even I’m able to prepare them. What I really love is,they don’t require a bunch of ingredients I’ll only use once.
