My JET Magazine Debut

Remember that JET Magazine interview I mentioned about a week ago?  Well this came out over the weekend.
And guess who snagged the number 2 spot on their “5 Must-Read Blogs For Black Moms” list? 

Yes, that is the one and only YUMMommy you see there! *screams*  And what’s even more awesome is that my friend Alex, formerly of Mommy Glow, got the number 1 spot! *screams again*  And I know Renee from Cutie Booty Cakes.

I am so humbled and thankful for this wonderful opportunity.  You all just don’t know how great it feels to be featured in such a reknown publication that has been and still is a staple in millions of Black households all over the world.  I grew up reading and watching my family read JET Magazine.  Never in a million years did I ever dream I would actually be in it!

And while I do write YUMMommy, I know that this success is not completely my own.  I had help getting to this point.  And so tomorrow I will be posting my official thank you speech.  I’ll warn you now and say that it will be a little bit longer than my usual posts but I didn’t want to leave anyone out.

Now I’m off to buy up more copies to sign and pass out to family and friends!
