You know… that Blog?

Pinteresting? I think SO!

Written By: Jenn - Aug• 01•11

So who would have thunk it? A simple comment on Facebook, and suddenly Broot both loves and hates me? That’s ok; I have broad shoulders and a well developed funny-bone… and many people have that reaction to me. Haha

Since I introduced my dear friend Broot a couple weeks ago, I may have also sucked a few other unsuspecting girlfriends into the swirling, time-sucking vortex that is pinterest.com.

I am not even sure how I found the place. I think maybe I stumbled upon it when looking for design ideas for Wee One’s bedroom in our new house (not built yet). The rest is a blur. Suddenly I’m in the middle of it full bore, and I have folder upon OCD-organized folder on my hard drive with so many amazing ideas that there’s no possible way I’ll ever get to half of them.

Yesterday we had friends over, and I whipped up this unbelievably easy ice cream cake for dessert. So very easy, and everyone loved it! My only regret is that I didn’t double the recipe and make a bigger one. It even looked EXACTLY like the picture (which I grabbed from Pinterest – it’s not mine)

So many artery clogging yummy recipes to find! I’ve tried several of them too, and all were instant hits with all concerned.

Sensational decorating ideas, DIY plans and ideas, fashion (some of which is beyond weird, but oh well), and among many other things, innovative and sensational kid crafts too! Wow, there just isn’t enough summer left to do them all. This one looks fun – I think we’ll be doing it this week!

 

My name is Jenn, and I’m a Pinterest Addict. There is no known cure besides a power failure and a low battery warning on your smart phone (because yep, they’ve got an app too!), and I’m completely ok with that (even if it makes my buddies hate me sometimes!).

Tuesday update: The Teen has been on the couch with her iTouch surfing Pinterest for 2 hours now… Oh the monsters I have created…! But if it gets her interested in cooking and stuff, YAY!

  4. I’m really scared to look at Pinterest now, but the cake and the jellyfish look so tempting… Gosh, I still have to find some time to blog again. What am I gonna do now :p? Thanks for sharing.
