Welcome Readers of Nameberry and the Motherlode!

December 3, 2010 By appellationmountain 7 Comments

It was a sunny December Friday, a red-letter day thanks to my guest post at Nameberry on The Art of the Smoosh. It is always a privilege to spend time at their site, and I was thoroughly enjoying the comments.

When what to my wondering eyes should appear but a mention of Appellation Mountain on Lisa Belkin’s The Motherlode blog at NYTimes.com. I printed a copy for my mom, and wondered if it would be cheating to fold the print-out so “New York Times” and “Abby Sandel” were smooshed closer together.  (Today has a theme, I think!)

If you’re new here, welcome.  And if you’re a long-time reader, thank you!

P.S. Tune in tomorrow for another Reader Baby Name Story.

    This is so fun! It’s neat to be ahead of the trend curve for once 😉 haha! That was a great post, as usual!

    Now I just hope this doesn’t slow down my name-post reading 🙂

    And I can say, “I knew her when…” even though it’s not technically true. I still claim the connection. Back in the day, you were Verity, anonymous, well-liked name nerd on Yahoo! Answers. 🙂

    Congratulations on a job well done! Your blog is amazing; I’m continually recommending it to pregnant friends who I think could use the help.
