By now, most everyone knows about Pinterest. It’s basically a virtual bulletin board of things you love, hate, aspire to, inspire you….really whatever you want to ‘collect’. It’s the same thing we all did as teenage girls, collected magazine pictures of bands, outfits and boys. Someone just figured out how to make it online and let you share it with the world.
I’m not going to lie. I am kind of obsessed with it. I fall asleep most nights swooning over cupcakes I will never make, projects I will never do, and pictures I wish I had taken. It’s addicting. And I am in awe that there are women (and men) out there that really do this stuff.
I’m convinced pinterest is made up of two groups of people: my mother-in-law, the uber Martha Stewart Room Mom extraordinaire and then people like me. You know, the mom that is actually asked to just buy some cupcakes at Costco instead of bake them at home.
Pinterest has given me some awesome ideas that I am totally planning on doing. Like this surprise for my nasty mailman this winter…
Or the creepy cupcakes I could totally buy from Costco, mess up and stick doll parts in to make the boys laugh…

But, let’s face it…I am never going to make this. I’m honestly wondering why anyone would…

and I sure don’t have the patience for this…

So even if Pinterest makes me realize I will never be a supermom, I’m OK with that. I am totally going to steal the other groups ideas and at least pretend in my head that I may be someday…Join me if you haven’t already.
Loving the 2nd pic with the doll arm sticking out … that’s hilarious!
That sure make me wish we had a mail box out front!
All Supercool, but I really like the bacon thing. Can’t be too hard, just wrap it in a cupcake pan when it is still warm, right?
