A Facebook notification popped up and it was a girl Husby went to college with that is my virtual BFF because we are so much alike. She was like, "please tell me you get Marie Claire magazine. If you don't, you must go get the August issue and turn to page 130."

I immediately replied with a "No, I don't??? Why???"
The suspense was killing me.
Then she posted a photo on my wall of THIS.

Um. HELLO! THAT'S ME! MY BLOG! IN A MAGAZINE!
Totally freaking out on the inside, but not squealing to wake Husby, I tried as hard as I could to read the little section of the article that she posted.
From what I gathered, the author was making fun of housewife blogs but kind of secretly loved them herself. I laughed because, hey, I know housewife blogs aren't for everyone :), and was just so excited to see my blog in a magazine! So fun!
I truly thought that the author was writing this article, needed some blog titles to throw in there so she googled them and mine popped up. I tried googling "housewife blogs", and mine was the second to pop up, so I figured "Eh, she probably doesn't read my blog, but still! Fun!"

I wanted to have the magazine as a little keepsake for myself so I went out and bought it tonight. I bought my Mom a copy, too, because she had asked me to. Hey, she's my biggest fan! If my name was in the Podunk Times she'd buy a copy!
{Super shout out to my friend Randi, who reads Marie Claire and enlightened me. I would never in a million years seen this article on my own.}
When we got home, I curled up on the couch to read the article and came upon an excerpt where the author was talking about giveaways and how this particular blogger was giving away Pink Sugar lotion and then I lost my breath.
I. Gave. Away. Pink. Sugar.
I gasped, still holding my breath, and kept reading. Then there it was, lo and behold, I WAS QUOTED! IN MARIE CLAIRE! MY WORDS FROM MY BLOG WERE IN MARIE CLAIRE! I could not stop laughing and screaming! Oh my GOODNESS!

She was totally making fun of what I said, but who cares?! I SAID IT! AND IT'S IN A MAGAZINE!
I sca-REAMED for Husby to come read and we were both just laughing and in disbelief. I mean, what?! This was blowing my mind!
I quickly went back to my Pink Sugar giveaway post and sure enough there sat my words, verbatim.
I called my Mom and started talking so fast I'm sure she couldn't understand a word I was saying - pink sugar, giveaways, quotes, what?!?
The end of the article was her referencing the Pink Sugar again and how maybe she will win it and I just couldn't help but laugh. Had I known where that post would end up, I would have died!
Now, by no means is the lady praising my blog and ones like it - but she wasn't totally bashing it, either. It was her honest opinion, and I respect and appreciate it because she was genuine. I mean, who of us haven't sighed and rolled our eyes and some of the stuff people post? I could probably go back on my own blog and roll my eyes at some of the stuff I have posted myself! Ha! :)
I truly am a wife and mommy who has always dreamed of these days that I'm living now. I don't expect everyone to get that - just like I don't understand other people's personal dreams and goals, because they're just that: personal. But, I am 100% real about loving this life God has not only blessed me with, but entrusted me with.
And y'all, now that I'm famous, maybe you'll see me on Food Network soon ... but I'll have to film in my Mom's kitchen because hers is a lot more glamorous than mine. "Whitney's Glamorous Kitchen", I can see it now! Tune in, friends. I'll be on right after Trisha and P-Dub!
And Sandra Tsing Loh (the article author), if you're out there reading this post, please send me your address. I would totally love to send you a bottle of Pink Sugar for your nightstand. :) (I mean it!)
Oh my word!!!! I'm DYING!!!!! Lol. Can I have your autograph? I should get a copy and have you sign it!!!! Haha! Ps now that Disney is over we need to get together! (-:
ReplyDeleteOkay and ps mark read your post with a big grin on his face and LOLed. He's impressed with your legitimacy and game. Hehe.
ReplyDeleteI would freak out too-that is too cool! BTW, the PINK SUGAR line is my favorite too!
ReplyDeleteseriously, how cool is that? I totally would have had the mumbled crazy talk convo with my mom too....and probably the cashier at the grocery store and the unsuspecting couple walking through the neighborhood. Really though, you have a cool blog and deserve a shout out :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! I didn't realize that you were the one who did the Pink Sugar giveaway or I would have sent you a picture of that part of the article, too!! Haha! Just don't forget your virtual BFF now that you're all famous and stuff! :-)
ReplyDeleteI can surely title this article content as the best one ever written in commercial kitchen equipment catering equipment ranges. It’s highly educating, informative and practical with its approach. All thanks goes to the writer.
ReplyDeleteHow cool!! I'm wanting to try Pink Sugar right about now. =)
ReplyDeleteIf you really want to send her some mail it to the magazine at her attention.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Okay where do you buy pink sugar lotion again?
ReplyDeleteLOL, that's so neat!!!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteWHAT?!? That is so cool and crazy!! Now Pink Sugar lotion needs to send you a lifetime supply. :)
ReplyDeleteWhitney, this is the best!!! I love it. Your blog is one of my very favorites, and I am so far from a "housewife" (single early twenties girl who works in finance), but I love love love reading about you and your sweet family. You are seriously the coolest!
ReplyDeleteFound it online :)

ReplyDeleteWoohoo! So fun! I love your blog and have two little guys who would love to play with Levi and Ezra while we sip our iced coffees! If you're ever in ATL let me know!
ReplyDeleteOkay, first of all, this is awesome.
ReplyDeleteSecond, does this make ME famous since I won the Pink Sugar lotion? I love it, by the way!

ReplyDeleteHow long does it take to change a tutor? I went to your website and chose a C++ assignment help expert based on the rating. The tutor is clearly knowledgeable and good at offering programming homework help. However, I do not understand his English. His English is so mixed and therefore explaining something to me is hard. I, therefore, would like to get a tutor from the United States whom we can clearly understand each other and also one who we are in the same time zone because of communication.

ReplyDeleteHi, as an economics tutor do you offer economics assignment help? If yes, how do you handle revisions? I hired another economics homework help expert who wanted me to pay for revision. I didn’t understand that because to start with, it was they who had completed the assignment. If your revisions are free then I would be more than comfortable to hire you in my next paper.
ReplyDeleteI am never worried when you are handling my work. Before I found you I had a hard time getting the right programming homework help experts to work on my tasks. Most of the ones I got had plagiarized work and never completed on time. This time I am working on C++ and therefore I am looking for a C++ assignment help expert to help me compete with my assignment which is due in a week.
ReplyDeleteYou are a statistics homework help who offers online classes. That is impressive. Tuition services are not mandatory for any student. But whoever sees tuition services can improve their class performance, especially for those students who find it hard to comprehend what is taught in a crowded classroom. I personally found it helpful when I was seeking statistics assignment help. I performed well.
ReplyDeleteUntil now, I still don’t know why my image processing homework took too long to be completed. The Matlab homework help solver who handled it promised to deliver it in three hours but he took more than fifteen hours.

ReplyDeleteQuickBooks has been one of the preferred software for accounting management, payroll functions, tax filing, bookkeeping, etc. At the same time, it is also prone to issues such as quickbooks error 6209 which can occur while installing or updating the QuickBooks application. Several consequences are there of this error like the abrupt shutdown of the application, or QB software not working at all, etc. If you are also stuck with this problem, you will have to repair the QuickBooks or reinstall it from the root. Other troubleshooting includes repairing the .net framework or using the QB diagnostic tool. Often it becomes a trap while eliminating the error 6209, resulting in a huge waste of time. You can save yours by contacting the QB support number and taking help from experts. Let talk.

I once hired an expert from your site for C Homework Help. I was pleased with it and I was told that your Python homework help tutors also develop programs outside school. I am not a student but I want a program to use in my office. The program should be able to automatically calculate employee office hours in the office and equate them with the amount payable at the end of the month. You can also provide me with a Java Homework Help expert. They too can develop the program. If needed we can also hire a C++ Homework Help expert.
