Binkytown authored by Amy

Favorite post: My very favorite was My Name Is Not Julia- the writing prompt I did back in September for the blog exchange. It was spontaneous and I sat down and wrote freely, almost effortlessly, start to finish in a matter of minutes and I loved it. I wish writing always felt like that.

Why did you start blogging? I came for the outlet and stayed for the camaraderie.
When I started I thought it would just be my own place to capture and make sense of a new chapter in my life. I never imagined I would actually have people stopping by to visit. It’s very powerful, knowing there are others out in the world who think and feel about things in a way similar to how you do.

Are you still in binkytown or have you transitioned to somewhere else these days? I’m still here but I’ve got my eyes open looking for a new town to move to.

What’s the best binky out there? AVENT. Hands down. They come with snap on binky covers for travelling and they glow in the dark so you can spot them in the crib or on the floor at three AM.

Whose side are you on and why — The Donald or Rosie (or do you care?): ROSIE! A)She’s awesome. She really does so many great charitable things for children that it makes me very upset to see her portrayed so badly by the media. B) Donald Trump should be getting WAY more flack for calling her “fat” and “ugly” and clearly used her for publicity. I’d like to see Heidi Klum kick his butt, tell him he’s “Out” and take over his lame-o show.
