Pinterest makes me want to cry. yeah, it also makes me feel like a complete failure. That's why I don't go on it.

I tried to sign up for Pinterest once, then realized they wanted to mine my FB contacts.
Bye bye Pinterest.
Problem solved LOL.

Why does it make you want to cry? At movies ... but I’m sure you’ll be sorry you asked later

I do not use the same email address for Facebook that I use for regular correspondence, and I have another one I use for signing up for things like Pinterest that want to fish for other information.

I use Pinterest to save recipes. That's it. I don't go exploring, etc. so other people's "achievements" aren't even in my line of vision.
But a lot of recipe sites have a Pinterest save button.
That works for me.

Apparently Pinterest is THE visual search engine these days and if you want to sell products online you need to use it, and blog and pin strategically or hire out to tailwind i think it is to pin for you... i'm wading through the ins and outs but honestly it makes me nauseous.

But feel free to have other random thoughts of your own on any topic Like we just got back from Cold Pursuit and after the first 15 minutes, which were like from a different movie, it was kind of like Tarantino moves to Fargo.

And here I thought you tried to make something you saw on Pinterest and it just didn't turn out right and that's why you wanted to cry. Nailed it!

lol. I've refused to join pinterest for private use since its inception, against my friends pleas i was missing out... i don't plan to spend any more time than i have to on there I am NOT a crafty person... Although, saving house pics to pinterest probably would have been better than to my phone/tablet... but that feels like it would have been letting pinterest win...

LOL! That's the same reason I don't compare my baking to Martha Stewart's creations. My house will never be perfect, because people actually live there. It'll never be a "showpiece". Pinterest gives me some really nice decorating ideas, but no, my house doesn't look like that.

Why don't I have any amusing random thoughts? Wait. I did have one. Miss M already is showing signs she has a big brother. This morning she tooted, and then looked at us and clapped.

If I am having a combination lunch/dinner, that means I'm really, really hungry because "somebody" interfered with the natural order of things and I did not get my lunch. "Somebody" had better be "calling" to order takeout or make reservations.

Well, we've never eaten out for a whole weekend straight. Unless on vacation. But here we are.
It's also been funny schedules. Yesterday, we didn't eat lunch until nearly 1:30. We went out to culvers. That means snacks for dinner. Today, we had a pancake breakfast, scout sunday, and DH just got pizza. We'll pick on that the rest of today as we try to prep for the week.

I prefer the Pinterest fail sites. Those are my people. I LOVE the cooking fails.
Someone tried to make little white bunny rolls for Easter. The original rolls were cute, oval in shape, with lightly traced lines for the ears, eyes, whiskers.
Apparently, she took scissors and snipped little bunny ears into the dough. When the bunny rolls came out of the oven, the ears all stood straight up like horns all burned brown at the tips - demon bunny rolls. Perfect for Easter.
Awesome.

Wondering why we are lucky to see one or two plows when there are actual winter storms, yet there's less than an inch on the ground and two plows have come past our house.
