    Am I the one woman in the world that has no desire to be on Pinterest? I was on there for a day and decided it would be easier to google any of the ideas when I need them.

    potential time suck that could be used for more productive things.

    Except for the fact that I've found countless healthy recipes on Pinterest, learned how to clean the house with fewer chemicals and found some nice things to decorate my home. Plus, it makes for a nice distraction when traveling. We can't all work and workout 24/7/365.

    What does one do at a Pinterest party? Did you make crafts from the site or something?

    I love it too...I've found some cool *kitten* on that site! :love:

    Guilty! I've found so many new recipes on there. Granted I still Google recipes, but it's nice to wander through Pinterest not looking for anything in particular and have something totally strike your fancy!!

    Guilty! I love that when I see an idea I can pin it so I don't forget for a later date and it keeps me from having to remember where I saw something. I am also one of those who has created "the board" to keep track of the things I have tried.

    If I has $1 for every wedding idea I've pinned, I could pay off the national debt.

    I love Pinterest, but I do have to laugh at myself and the irony of how I pin one thing about health and fitness and the next pin is one about a very fattening cheesecake....maybe one day after I lose the weight I can eat the cheesecake!!!

    Guilty as charged! It's so addicting!! BUT....the pictures of all the delicious recipes make my mouth water and the DIY crafts makes me feel like I could put that together...and 9 times out of 10 it never looks like it's supposed to. LOL.

    I once stumbled across a website that posted people's pinterest projects that didn't quite turn out like the pin. It was pretty funny. I can't remember what it was though.

    I love pinterest. I use it to pin fashion (although not as much as I thought I would), recipes (a lot - and I have made quite a few of them), workout ideas/tips that I want to incorporate at a later time. I've pinned home decor ideas. I am actually working on a series of paintings based on some items I pinned for decorating. It's so much easier than having 50 trillion bookmarks to sort through. I can go ok, I need a dinner recipe. I go to my dinner board and see pics and decide what looks good. Rather then read through a ton of bookmarks trying to find somehting.

    Let's just say if pinning was a work out then I would be ripped!

    LOVEEEE IT. However, just tried to use it, and it won't let me repin anything. Weird. Must be a temp bug.

    Kinda....I only have 1400 pins, but I feel I'm a success because I have more followers than I follow. My mother in law has over 50k pins. Now she is addicted. She is a hoarder in real life, so I should not be surprised.
