Some pinteresting things

Not gonna say I'm addicted to pinterest--cause that would be lying. 
But I will say I'm pin-dicted, which is a term I just made up and I better just go ahead and pin before anyone else does.

So this post is all about my pin-diction and my attempts to clean up my act, by which I mean really do the things I pin.  So here we go....

PIN no. 1
When I saw this outfit, I repinned and commented something like, "Like and Have!!"
Next, I went straight away to my sister's closet and grabbed the shirt, the cardi, and the shoes.  Days later she saw the pin and responded something like, "cough, choke....yes you do! and i like!!"  Which made me laugh, cuz now all you fellow pinners see my pin and think the clothes are mine (all mine!), but that's where you're dead wrong.  Suckers.




PIN no. 2
I totally didn't take a picture of my own "zucchini ziti" but honestly, you should thank me for that.  It woulda been really redundant.  It looks just like this picture.  Promise.  I pinned this recipe because it's made in a crockpotter, and I'm determined to use mine more.  The recipe was really good.  And simple.  And made with whole wheat pasta and veggies--all good things.  The one thing I will say is that the crockpot cook time is only like 2 hours...not enough time to have it cook all day while you're gone, but too long to really make for dinner after a day at work.  Basically, you could make this without the whole crockpot appeal.  Just sayin'.



PIN no. 3
I saved toilet paper rolls for weeks for this thing.  And luckily, I have a friend who just so happens to save all her old TP rolls (that's a whole other blog post, folks) and that really sped things up.

 



And here's mine. It's still a work in progress, since I think I'd like to spray paint it a darker color (like charcoal gray?) or at least put on another coat of white.  Plus, I'm making a couple more in different sizes to hang along my wall so it's like a set.  What do ya think?  Not to shabby for being $free.99, right?


Until next time.

  8. For the outfits alone, Pinterest has saved my life. Now, instead of calling my 24 year old sister and being like, "Can I wear tights with boots or is it leggings and what are jeggings help me help!" I can just get on The Pinterest and recreate cute outfits. Bam.

    And now, I'm going to recreate yours. Thankyouverymuch.
