There's another new blog on the block! It's called Brokelyn (good name) and it's all about living large on small change. Stop by with the welcome wagon filled with low priced Costco snacks and take a look. The editor, Faye Penn, a columnist for InStyle Magazine
and a contributing editor at WSJ. Magazine, was at Blogfest a few weeks back. She gave me her card and I've been waiting for the opening of the blog ever since.

Well, I'm glad to report that Brokelyn has finally opened its door and I was not disappointed. Brokelyn is a smart, well-designed, very professional-looking blog that has lots to offer including sections on food & drink, outings, sales & deals and more.  All on a budget!

A former features editor
for New York Magazine and The New York Post, Penn lives in Ditmas Park and is calling Brokelyn a blog-o-mag "founded in
celebration of a place we’re endlessly enthusiastic about, no matter
how [synonym for crummy] the [synonym for economy] gets."

We’re not going to dwell on that part around here—we’ll be too busy
finding new ideas for bargain obsessives, stoop-sale sartorialists and
wallet-aware foodies. Or we’ll be calling 100 Brooklyn dentists for the
cheapest teeth whitening
(even though we’re not positive that the cheapest dentist is always the
best one.) If you have ideas, tips, lavish praise, or fully conceived
and photographed articles about budget-friendly Brooklyn, by all means,
please send them our way.
