-- Q&A: How would you categorize your blog?
Allie's Answers is a green blog. My goal is to help people make simple, inexpensive green changes that have a big impact. I think it's easy to get the impression that going green is hard, or expensive, or involves sacrifice. In going green, I don't feel like I've made any real sacrifices, and while some green products are more expensive, others are less expensive, so it all evens out in the end. I also just started a personal blog.
What blogs do you read?
I just got back from a two week "blogcation" and was so lucky to have some of my favorite bloggers fill in for me: The Good Human Amanda from Come the Revolution Fake Plastic Fish Go Green Travel Green Howling Hill Mark from Chronicle of a Gay Marriage Nancy Pearl Wannabe Mickey from The Prettiest Denny's Waitress Dianne from Dianne's Dishes Courtney from Malfeasance did a great guest review for me a few weeks ago. ... I read so many blogs. My Google Reader is out of control. Please check out my links page.
What's your plan to rule the world?
Ruling the world sounds like a lot of responsibility. It would probably give me a headache. What I would like to do, as cheesy as it sounds, is work to make the world a better place. My friend, Neil, has taken it upon himself to raise twenty thousand dollars for The Cambodian Children's Fund this year. To me, it's so inspiring that this guy who's just trying to get by like everyone else, is working so hard to improve other people's lives. It's changed my perspective on so many things. I feel like it's opened me up to thinking about what I can give and how I can help, instead of getting caught up in that daily struggle of all the little details that don't matter very much when it comes down to it.
What will you say to Oprah when we're featured on her show?
Ha! I'd love to tell you I'd have something beautiful and witty to say her, but in all reality, I'd probably just make a lot of unintelligible sounds and cry. I'm cool like that.
