National Black Business Month: Show Appreciation to Black Food Folks with Thamee’s Womxn-operated and BIPOC-Focused Gift Case
National Black Business Month (NBBM) was created to stimulate spending with Black-owned companies. August 1st marked the 17th annual National Black Business Month. I am passionate about advocating for small businesses, specifically those owned by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. National Black Business Month is the perfect time for everyone to be intentional about how they spend their dollars.
“It is our hope that anyone who receives an NBBM Curated Gift Case knows they are valued and appreciated for the work they do and for their continued support of BIPOC-, woman-, immigrant-, and family-owned businesses like Thamee. We see you, we thank you, and we hope you know someone in our community cares for you.“
– Simone Jacobson, Thamee Co-Owner & Director of Operations
To show appreciation to some Black food folks, I’ve teamed up with Thamee to create a list of some of the Black food folks around the DC area who continuously work hard to support the Black community. WOW!, Thamee’s tiny wine shop, officially launched on Thursday, August 13th. In celebration of NBBM, Thamee is coordinating Curated Gift Cases of 6 bottles of wine!
I have been supporting Thamee since day one, enjoying the savory dishes of the only Burmese restaurant in DC. Thamee has always showed up and showed out for the BIPOC community. With their BIPOC Pantry and Black Farm Bag to support Black farmers. This is why I am excited to be partnering with Thamee on this initiative, showing appreciation to Black food folks.
The NBBM Curated Gift Case was created with one simple idea in mind, celebrating Black food folks by sending a simple message: “let us take care of you.” According to Simone Jacobson, Thamee Co-Owner & Director of Operations, “It is our hope that anyone who receives an NBBM Curated Gift Case knows they are valued and appreciated for the work they do and for their continued support of BIPOC-, woman-, immigrant-, and family-owned businesses like Thamee. We see you, we thank you, and we hope you know someone in our community cares for you.“
In appreciation of Black food folks, purchases of the NBBM Curated Gift Case can be made on Thursday, August 13th. WOW! will host a soft launch from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. on Thursday of the tiny wine shop via pre-orders on Toast where guests can select an option for either pick-up or delivery. Starting on Wednesday, August 19th, delivery services will be offered twice weekly on Wednesday and Thursday between 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., with pick-up options from Friday to Sunday during Thamee’s operating hours.

Pink Salt Trick
Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

Wonderful site. Plenty of useful information here. I am sending it to some buddies ans additionally sharing in delicious. And certainly, thank you on your sweat!
HepatoBurn
HepatoBurn sounds like an interesting supplement, especially with its focus on supporting
liver health and fat metabolism. I appreciate
that it uses natural ingredients and targets stubborn belly fat, which is a common struggle for many.
Curious if anyone has actually seen noticeable
changes in weight or energy levels while using it consistently?

Nitric Boost Ultra
I’ve been using Nitric Boost Ultra for a couple of weeks now,
and I’m noticing better endurance during workouts and quicker recovery afterward.
It gives me a solid energy boost without the jitters.
So far, it seems to be doing what it claims. Curious to see how it performs over the next month!
ProstaVive
ProstaVive seems like a solid option for men looking to support their prostate health naturally.
It’s made with herbal ingredients like saw palmetto and nettle root,
which are commonly used to reduce frequent urination and improve urinary flow.
Some users have reported noticeable improvements in sleep
and energy levels after a few weeks of use. However, like
any supplement, results can vary and it’s best to stay consistent and check with a healthcare provider before starting.

Hepatoburn
I’ve been using Hepatoburn for a few weeks now, and I’m actually starting to feel a difference.
My digestion feels smoother, and I’m not as bloated
after meals. It’s marketed as a liver-support and fat-burning supplement, so I’m curious to see how it
works in the long run. So far, it’s a promising start!

I really enjoy reading through on this website, it contains wonderful blog posts. “And all the winds go sighing, For sweet things dying.” by Christina Georgina Rossetti.
Mitolyn
Just started taking Mitolyn recently, and I’m already feeling a bit more energized throughout the day.
I’ve read that it supports mitochondrial health, so I’m
curious to see how it works over time. It’s early, but so far, so
good. Definitely feels like a step in the right direction for overall vitality!
