Pinterest Stuff I've Actually Done

Disclaimer: If you don't currently use Pinterest, you will not really understand this post.

Like everything else that is cool and digital, Pinterest can be a giant time suck. So, my rule for myself is that I must do at least one thing that I've previously pinned each week. If I don't do something each week, I'm not allowed to go on Pinterest the following week.

I realize that most other people out there are capable of moderation in things like this, but I'm not one of them. Rules like this keep me from diving headfirst into crazy.


 Here is a list of recipes I've tried and liked so far:

I do more than pin recipes, but this is an easy list to start with and requires no after pictures. ;)  Enjoy!

I rarely look at Pinterest anymore because all it does is rub in my face how uncreative I am, how ugly and boring my house is, how much I haven't traveled, and how out of shape I am. I don't need that kind of pressure. Although, I am tempted by many of the recipes.

I've been thinking I should post my finished pinterest projects too! I'm glad you post yours :) Beth, hey, some of these projects- if I can do it, YOU can do it! I am horribly non-creative/crafty.

I know, I know, Pinterest is meant to inspire. Perhaps the winter is causing too much cynicism within me.

On pinterest, I typically pin things that I might actually do and ignore the rest. ;)
