Back when I first started blogging in 2008, I stumbled on a little meme called “The Spin Cycle.” It was created by Jen, who blogged at Sprite’s Keeper. She had this idea of bloggers “writing a post based on a topic, and linking to each other’s sites so you can read two different spins (Get it? Spin? Spin cycle?) on the same subject. If you enjoy this idea… let us know and we’ll try to make a go of staging an open forum on Fridays where everyone will be able to post their own variations of a common theme on their blogs.”
After a while, Jen decided to give up The Spin Cycle, but we weren’t ready to stop spinning. Gretchen from Second Blooming, who you all know and love, was able to take over for Jen. And then after a while, I offered to help Gretchen with The Spin Cycle and became her partner. Gretchen is taking a short break from The Spin Cycle, but I’ll continue to post prompts here each week.
My first Spin was on the prompt “What if?” I chose to write, “What if the moon really were made out of cheese?” In honor of my first prompt (partly because I’ve always wanted to have a “do-over”) our prompt this week is: What if?
Write your spin on What If? and link up here any day this week! I’ll be back on Friday with my new What If? spin!
Copy and paste the code in the box to add some Spin Cycle bling to your post! (On some blogs, you will need to delete the quote marks and replace them with regular quote marks.)
I love this prompt and definitely can’t wait to see how you answer it this time!! 🙂

I’m looking forward to this one! And I’d love to know the history behind that saying about the moon being made of cheese.

Ah! This is an interesting question – looking forward to reading your take. You know me if it has to do with food, I am all for it! 🙂

I haven’t read my favorite blogs for over a year. I’m glad to see you are still writing. I started blogging about Rocky again, and I started A new blog for myself. Hopefully I will be able to link up with you in The Spin Cycle in the next week or so.

I’d love to have you link up to the Spin Cycle! Your Spin would be a valuable addition! Nice to hear from you again.
