pinterest pick of the week

happy monday, folks.  hopefully, you have off today in observation of columbus day.  if your kids are off too, get outside...today looks like another beautiful day.  

pintrest may very well be the ultimate time suck. but, in a good way. life changing way.  i'm going to go out there and say it is up there with the other internet greats like amazon, google, and twitter.  for me at least.

(haven't been there yet?  finish reading my post and head on over immediately...then go outside!)

the purpose of the site is to maintain a collection of "pins" that anyone on the internet like/love. you see a cute pair of riding boots on some website?!  you "pin" it to pinterest for everyone else to see.  it's like a more refined google image search with pictures of things people actually like, a lot.

looking for bathroom decor ideas?  or crafts for toddlers? wedding favors? just type it in the search.

there are so many great ideas on there.  i seriously need an accountability partner to limit my searching.

anyone?  ::cricket, cricket::

great!  i'm not ready to give up one of the few things that fill my cup daily.  there are also some hilarious things people pin that really crack me up.

c'mon, you know that's funny!

i try to do a recipe, craft, or whatever else looks interesting, once a week.

this past week, i gave the pumpkin cinnamon roll pancakes with cream cheese icing a try. can you blame me?  people were re-pinning these things like hotcakes. haha...get it?  hotcakes.

recipe girl has provided the recipe and detailed directions for these delicious delights.

my only suggestion is to prep everything the night before. it's a bit more time consuming than your traditional boxed pancakes and maple syrup.  prep the flour, cinnamon swirl, egg, and icing mixtures separately.  you'll have less dishes to do in the morning and gives you a tasty reason to get up.

again with the sideways pictures, my apologies.  the final stamp of approval comes from natalie.

i'm on a pumpkin kick, as is everyone else this time of the year. stay tuned...another tried and true pumpkin recipe will be posted this week.
let me know if you give these pancakes and/or pinterest a try.  you won't be disappointed.

thanks for stopping by.
