This was the scene this morning on the deck outside our kitchen. Oh, lonely, lonely umbrella, you whom we will not use for another six or seven months. I would hug you but that would be awkward.
Hi. I’m Heather B. Armstrong, and this used to be called mommy blogging. But then they started calling it Influencer Marketing: hashtag ad, hashtag sponsored, hashtag you know you want me to slap your product on my kid and exploit her for millions and millions of dollars. That’s how this shit works. Now? Well… sit back, buckle up, and enjoy the ride.
