PINTEREST! PINTEREST! PINTEREST!

Yes. I am addicted. I have so many great ideas and so little time. My sister-in-law asked me if I had ever heard of it. Nope... Not then. I started to see mentions of it in my news feed on Facebook and thought I would check it out. WOW! Looks cool! My husband is in the construction business and loves to create with our home. Problem is, I am not a creative person. I have to see it to know it. If I see an idea, I can recreate it pretty easily. It is just coming up with the idea that escapes me.

My first project from Pinterest were Christmas presents for my daycare parents. They turned out so cute!!

Talk about easy and fun! My oldest in daycare is three and the youngest is 12 weeks. A more "hands on" activity was not in our cards this year.

In finding these wonderful ideas on Pinterest, I found TONS of fabulous recipes. Three that I made for our huge, family Christmas were:

Buffalo Chicken Dip:

2 C Cooked Chicken
1 package cream cheese
1 C Cheddar Cheese
1 C. Blue Cheese
1 C Hot sauce

Place all ingredients in crock pot and heat through. Serve with celery.

Even my picky daughter loved it.

Marinated Mushrooms. I have to thank my Aunt Sue for this recipe! She is the bomb!


Crack Corn: Just follow the link. :) They don't call it "CRACK" corn. I do. If you eat just one delicious little piece, you are hooked!

Okay... I know what you are going to say about the next one. Believe me, I have heard it all. Even my sweet tooth, chocolate loving husband wouldn't try it. Guess what? It tastes like hot chocolate! Yes. MAKE THEM!!

Chocolate Chip Bacon Cookies....Yes. I know! Bacon. Chocolate. Two of the worlds greatest inventions.


Following this will be my week of PINTEREST vacation activities.
