RIP MBFFW

I have spent the past several days thinking.  And eating.  And watching a lot of TV.  But mostly, I have been thinking.

I am thinking about how I can monetize Lauren's blog.  And yes, I think I just invented a new verb.

Because I know my audience is directly a result of Lauren's blog, and I also know this blog will self-destruct the moment Jesse and Lauren say "I do," the first task at hand is to find a new subject for Lauren to blog about.  Then I can revamp this blog to echo her new blog.

This is where things get crazy.  Let's discuss some ideas.  In what format, you ask?  Bullet points!  Duh!

  • Young Apartment Ambivalence--there are so many blogs out there going on and on about how terrific it is to renovate and decorate your home.  Lauren's could be more in the vein of, "ok, I did this, here is how it looks, it wasn't that fun and it cost me an arm and a leg..."
  • Nanny 101--Lauren could do little tutorials on childcare.  Just last night, when I told her Kylee was a real pill at the MOA, she suggested we could sell her.  Now if Lauren could just perfect an English accent, ala Mary Poppins or Jo from that nanny show...
  • The Wonder Year...a blog chronicling her and Jesse's first year of marriage.  I think this is a good one and has the most potential of securing advertisers.  She could test out kitchen products, gadgets for homes, visit restaurants, etc.  The possibilities are endless!
