Oh yeah, MyBrownBaby rolled out on the world tour—i.e. "The BlogRollers BlogHer or Bust" trip to Chicago—yesterday, and it's been non-stop fun with The Blogrollers' Lorraine of Ask Wifey, Christie of A Work In Progress, and their fourth wheel contest winner, Jennifer of The Baby Makin(g) Machine.
When I tell you we had a time? We had a time. We left from Christie's house in our super sexy Chevy Traverse, which came totally loaded with all kinds of toys, including an OnStar system that connected us with our own personal assistant to guide us up the road, and a satellite radio system that hooked us up with all kinds of great music—from Earth Wind & Fire to Jill Scott. We also had the hook-up on the iPod, with Deejay Christie on the ones and two, spinning Craig Mack and, wait for it... Captain and Tennille.
Of course, Jennifer almost got kicked out of the ride when she revealed she doesn't like cornbread, collard greens, yams, or Thanksgiving turkey. After lunch at The Cracker Barrel—can I just tell you that being in that place is literally like being a kid in a candy store?!—she talked her way back into the Chevy by proudly professing her love of okra and chitlins.
Of course, Jennifer promptly tried to get us back for clowning her by planting a whoopie cushion in our seats.
Little prankster.
We're chilling in Louisville, KY, where we'll be trying out some of the super delicious products from Vintage Body Spa, a line of all-natural, organic facial and body scrubs, masks, and lotions, before we head off for our second leg of our road trip to BlogHer in Chicago.
