Mindy’s blog
Sunday, January 21st, 2007Mindy Kaling (the effervescent “Kelly”) recently blogged about the last two episodes, ‘Traveling Salesmen’ and ‘The Return’:
The three guys, Gene [Stupnitsky], Lee [Eisenberg] and Mike [Schur] — who have never written together — had barely a week to come up with two episodes, and these might very well be my two of my series favorites.
One week?! Amazing.
Mindy blogs mainly about non-Office topics, and it’s a fun read! Especially if you love to shop. :) (100-calorie snack-sized bags of kettle corn popcorn — I never would have known!)

The last entry on Mindy’s blog was in April, as far as I can tell, and I miss it so much! If anyone knows about this and where I might find her new blog (if she is writing one) I would greatly appreciate the info!

36 | Brian Tue. Aug. 12, 2008 at 12:51pmHey Mindy!
I just read your MSN article called “Living Alone Is Hard.” I just moved out on my own a couple of weeks ago (I had five roommates previously!) and reading your article had me laughing! I literally was trying to control myself from laughing out loud in my very quiet office. Anyways, thank you for that, it made my day.
Take care and I love watching you on The Office.

34 | Jack Tue. Aug. 12, 2008 at 8:23amI just read an article on MSN about how tough it sometimes is to live alone. I am currently moving out on my own from a relationship and the fear of being alone at the end of the day is huge. It’s good to know there are others as anxious as I am. Thank you
Ephron is after Nora Ephron, who wrote “Sleepless in Seattle,” I believe.

32 | Dr. Schnitzer Wed. Sep. 19, 2007 at 11:46pmis it me or has mindy lost weight? looking at her pic in the nail polish blog, it’s pretty obvious that she dropped prob 10 lbs since season 1/2. Hope she doesn’t go too far
31 | lisa Mon. Jan. 22, 2007 at 12:32pmoh.. after re-reading i did see that the list is titled “contributors” whoops! sorry for that one.
30 | mandy Mon. Jan. 22, 2007 at 10:26amI am in LOVE with this blog! She and whoever else writes are absolutely adorable! FYI the list of writers to the right of the blog, they are usually links to her friends blogs. I have a few blogs I’m addicted to on blogger as well. But back to the point, I love this blog, it’s a new favorite. :)

28 | lisa Mon. Jan. 22, 2007 at 6:53amWOW! When Pam said that Kelly really likes to online shop…. she wasn’t joking
27 | Corporate Booty Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 11:29pmRe #10-13: Actually, Mindy Kaling is not her real name either. It is Vera Chokalingam. I think I read somewhere that Mindy is a nickname she got from “Mork and Mindy”, and Kaling is a shortened form of her real surname. So Ephron could be just another one of her aliases. She isn’t married to someone named Ephron, is she?
26 | Office Tally Fan Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 8:42pmHasn’t Mindy said in interviews that Kelly is an extension of her real-life personality? If you watch her in interviews, real-life Mindy and Kelly do talk the same way.
Most of the blog entries are by Mindy although there are a few by other contributors.
Hijack re the blog: OPI’s I’m Not Really a Waitress is not a true red, but it *is* the perfect red on just about everybody. Salon staff have told me that it’s the favorite shade of the Desperate Housewives cast.
25 | Boo to reruns this week...oh well Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 6:41pmEchoing everyone’s comment on how this sounds like Kelly. Its as if instead of doing work, “kelly” is on bluefly.com and doing this blog instead.
24 | i love this show Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 5:58pmHehe no worries, tanster -
I finished reading the blog and now I want to go eat the Full English Breakfast at Pastis in NYC and go to that yummy bakery with those small $12 cupcakes.
Too bad I’m in SF.
23 | Jon Jon Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 2:47pmThat is one adorable blog-I love it! I just pretty much read the whole thing, and yeah, it’s definitely Mindy. Now I want to go buy lots of cute things.
22 | Post-it Thief Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 2:23pmJon Jon, doh! — I didn’t even notice that the kettle corn post wasn’t written by her! Thanks.
21 | tanster Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 1:35pmOMG! Mindy’s blog is hilarious. She seems so much like Kelly in real life
20 | Corporate Booty Sun. Jan. 21, 2007 at 1:28pmBy the way, tanster -
Mindy’s not the only person who contributes to the blog, as evidenced by the long “Contributors” list on the right-hand-side of the page (although she seems to be the primary contributor)…
So when you look at the bottom of each entry, it’ll tell you who posted it - and the Kettle Corn post wasn’t posted by Kelly, but some guy named Ricky.
Just FYI.
