The Joy of Mac 'n Cheese

Our first Keepin' It Real book club got off to a tight start with our discussion of "Baby Momma Drama" by Carl Webber. W-Bo was a fabulous hostess and treated us to heavenly mac 'n cheese. She used Patti Labelle's recipe, and I think Big Momma would have been proud!
We had a lively and insightful discussion. We talked a lot about the characters, and the majority opinion was that Jasmine was really annoying. Most of us liked her sister, Stephanie, better. Although Stephanie was a ho and made bad choices, she was more honest with herself (although clearly not honest with Travis). At the end of the book, Stephanie accepted the consequences of her actions and let Travis go without starting any baby momma drama. Our favorite male character was Dylan. He seemed liked a responsible, sweet man with a big johnson.
