Hello lovelies!
I've been awa
y for
FAR too long. I've been really
busy finishing up with school (well at least my AA), and I was working
an AWFUL job as an assistant manager at this Fried Pie Shop/BBQ place.
Ok, ok...it wasn't too terrible...well at least the pay for a restaurant
job wasn't. As for everything else I had to put up with...well...never
mind that!
So in my absence I have been exploring the
world and the world wide web. Surprising the things you discover in a
year's time. I honestly believe that every day brings on new knowledge
and experiences that make life a little more worth living. However, in
my case I have been sucked into a parallel universe that my boyfriend
feels will be the death of me [and him] dramatically and hypothetically
speaking of course. Sounds pretty lethal and crazy huh? LIKE WHATEVER
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, RIGHT???....
Yes, Pinterest! You know the site where you can pin/repin anything you can possibly image (as long as it agrees to terms and conditions...NO PORN!) to your own personalized "pin board". Think of it like a better more aesthetically pleasing way to organize bookmarks if you will.
In the most simple way to put my new found pass time is... obsessed/addicted perfectly normal. I mean I have over 3,000 pins and 50+ boards. I would say this is a healthy "hobby" and nothing more than something to stimulate my mind. LOL! Okay, who am I kidding? I'm totally 100% crack addict level obsessed with Pinterest!
I mean c'mon! It's totally enthralling. Trust me...come to the dark side, we have cookies...
My pinterest alone has hundreds (literally) of recipes and DIY craft/beauty ideas that go pretty much unmatched. I mean seriously, where else would I have found this on my own? I would like to credit myself with being a pretty creative mind, but the things I have seen pop up on Pinterest have completely opened my eyes and blown my mind. The level of creativity expressed through the pins on there is like OMG for a lack of a better term. I've been completely blown away!
I may or may not be preaching to the choir here. That is because most blogs that have been "discovered" have been brought on upon Pinterest itself. I mean I'll be honest here, I'm not really one to go and browse the web looking for interesting blogs. That being said if you are one of those people and you came across my page, WELCOME and more power to ya because honestly I wish I had that much patience and drive to do so myself. I guess you could say that Pinterest has made me a tad bit lazy in that aspect. I am reluctant however to have stumbled across it.
Let me tell you, I have made numerous recipes from pins that I have found off Pinterest, and every single one has turned out amazingly. I'm not tooting my own horn either! They were delicious and definitely not something I could have come up with on my own. I mean...Reese's cheesecake brownies?!? I mean the concept would have crossed my mind, but I would have had no idea at all how to go about making them. Pinterest has become a daily conversation starter at the dinner table now.
Okay, enough with the babbling about all that. Now, I will enlight/may possibly destroy your life with my own Pinterest...*giggles*
When you have made your way back to my blog...let me know. Hahaha!
Anyways, to list some of my boards off:
and many more...
If you have not discovered pinterest for yourself, I seriously urge you to go now and at least check it out. Take my word for it. If only to find a recipe or craft idea, it's totally worth it!
Go now!
Happy pinning! :)
As always,
Angel C.
