What is this site?

Well, for one, it’s a “mommy blog”, sort of. I AM a mommy, and this IS a blog, so I guess by default it has to be. However, this blog isn’t about kids. It’s actually for moms. Specifically, ways that your lives can be made easier by cool new technology, fun and useful gadgets, life-saving websites and lifehacks. I guess you don’t even HAVE to be a mom to read and use the tips, but you will have to endure the jokes. The idea is that I am a techno-geek. It took me years to learn how to use technology and build my repertoire of sites that help me live my life the way I want to live it. I may as well share it with everyone as a living!

Who owns this site?

My name is Jessica Stratton, though everyone calls me Jess. Occasionally people call me “Jessie”, although more often than not, people call me “Jen”. Even people I’ve known for years. My name is Jess. Not Jen. If you call me Jen though, I’ll forgive you. It’s generally very sweet people that always call me “Jen”. You can read the “About” page for more information on who I am and why I started this.

What is a ‘Momelette’?

Each article is called a ‘momelette’ (yes, it’s gimmicky, too bad. It’s fun to write it that way. Besides, it’s necessary for the tagline and logo to work) and is designed like a recipe, containing ingredients and steps to make them easy to follow. They are assigned a category and a level of know-how/interest, such as beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Discussions follow, allowing readers to ‘add’ to the recipe.

I have my own momelette recipe I’d like to write.

Great! I’m always looking for submissions. The content standard is pretty high here, so no promises, but you can submit your recipe to jess at momelettes dot com.

I have my own momelette recipe I’d like to share, but I’d rather watch “Max and Ruby” for all eternity than write it myself. Besides, I have four kids. You have it easy with your one infant. Do you honestly think I have that kind of time??

No worries! You can still email your recipe to me at jess at momelettes dot com, and I’ll write it up and give you credit. In fact, I love learning new things, so you’ll probably make ME really happy, too.
