5 Questions From Karly
by Leslie
My blogging soulmate Karly from Wiping Up Snot was offering up interviews, so I jumped at the chance to answer her burning questions. Here they are along with my answers.
1. If you could be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, which one would you be and why?
Leonardo. I took a quiz at QuizFarm.com that told me this:
You scored as Leonardo. You need to relax and realize that life should be fun as well as orderly. Your organization and willingness to be perfect will help you along the way, but sometimes you can be very annoying to others.
Yeah, that fits me.
2. What is your earliest memory?
My earliest memory is from around age 3 1/2. My mom was helping me into my snowsuit to go outside and play in the snow. It’s isn’t a long memory - I don’t really remember the playing in the snow part, but I remember getting ready, probably because I was so excited.
3. How did you come up with the name of your blog/website?
I created my website in hopes of bringing moms together to share advice, ideas and stories in those few moments they had to themselves. My working title for it was Mommy Moments.
When it came time to buy a domain, Mommy Moments was taken. I knew I wanted a new name with ‘Mommy’ in it and I wanted a trademark that people could come to recognize. All along, I referred to my website as ‘My Place.’ Once I created my trademark - a sketch of Julia’s baby face - it became My Mommy’s Place.
4. If one day the world was taken over by an evil man who decided that women could wear only shoes or carry a handbag, which would you choose? Would you rather be purseless or shoeless? For the rest of time.
I think I’d have to go with shoes, then I’d organize all of the other shoe-wearing women to beat that evil man down with them.
5. Does Julia take after you or Dave more? In what ways?
Well, she talks and talks and talks and talks and talks - like me, but she’s got Dave’s sense of humor.

Julia is a wonderful blend of the best of Dave and me. She’s from the man that makes me feel like a natural woman and she has the parts of me that I like best about myself, and that makes her the most likeable individual on the earth in my book.

My memory does not go that far back. I remember bits and pieces of my life in Hong Kong before I moved to America when I was five, but nothing in detailed.
I love that you took a quiz about the ninja turtles! You are such a dork and I love it.
Promise to link to ya here soon, but FIRST I had to tell you that I nominated you for a Thinking Blogger Award. I know you already got one, but whatever. You need another.
Really good answers! I love your earliest memory, I remember myself how exciting it was to get all bundled up and play in the snow!
Great answers, I loved this post!
