I love blogging carnivals. Besides being loads of fun, they are a chance to visit old friends and meet new ones. What I didn't know is that they are also an endurance test — to see if you can read 50 blog posts in 24 hours (part of the fun is that everyone sends in their entries at the 11th hour). I survived! And here's a snapshot of the best of British mumosphere…
Liz from Living with Kids is going on a diet: New Year, new diet (and no more leftovers).
Rosie Scribble writes about Blogging, taboo topics and the issue of self-disclosure.
Tim (Bringing Up Charlie) give us his ten best of 2009.

The BMB Carnival is now hosted here.
Our little blogging carnival is now one! How quickly we have grown. The past 25 carnivals have featured more than 750 posts from over a hundred bloggers. Wow. That's a lot of whinging.
The official info is below. I've moved the carnival to A Modern Mother. Please note we're always looking for new hosts, email me at amodernmother (at) gmail (dot) com to sign up. Being inundated with 50 emails 24 hours before a carnival is quite an exhilerating experience one should do miss!
A carnival is a blogging event and "The Best of the British Mummy Bloggers Carnival" takes place every two weeks and highlights the best posts from the British mummy blogging community.
It's carnival time and I'm indulging in my "mommy" side. Is there a difference between mums and moms? I'm both. Apart from the accents and a preference for Cadbury's over Hershey's – I'm happy to report there are more similarities than differences. The "best of" mommy carnival highlights is up over …
So, the other day at coffee, I brought up my mummy blog. I might as well been speaking Slovenian. Non capiche. What’s a mummy blog?” asked one of the mums, a particularly chummy friend of mine who loves veg patches as much as I do. “It’s a place where mums can …

First, the Best of the Mommy Bloggers is up on Under the Big Blue Sky.
Check it out, it’s an eclectic mix of stories from the trenches of motherhood.
Second, I read something the other day that is really bugging me.
The debate is raging in blogosphere. Some prominent bloggers have decided to “retire” because, to sum it up, now that blogging has reached mainstream in the US, it’s not cool anymore.
Microblogging, such as Twitter, is now the “in” thing.
Welcome to the first edition of the Best of the Mommy Bloggers Carnival! This carnival highlights posts from the best of the mommy blogger community.
Bloggers were asked to send in their "best post ever" — either in terms of page views, comments, or what each blogger felt was their personal best.
You can tell I am a victim of "mommy rot" as I picked the date of the US presidential election for our carnival debut. Ooopps.
A carnival is a blogging event and "The Best of the Mommy Bloggers Carnival" takes place every two weeks and features recent posts from the cream of the mommy blogger community.
This is how it works: every two weeks a different mommy blogger “hosts” the carnival. The blogger community submits their best post from the past month — this could be your most popular post, something that has done well on StumbleUpon or Digg, or one of which you are particularly proud.
The rules are one post per blogger and it must be something written in the past four weeks.
The host blogger then compiles the carnival. Check out the ones below for examples.
