thought eleven: Pinterest revisited

I wrote (a few thoughts ago) that Pinterest was a nice idea but that it was all creativity from behind a computer screen. I challenged myself to actually make/try the things I've found.

Here are just a few of the things I have tried so far.

my microwave cake in a mug.

This was surprisingly easy and tasted absolutely amazing! I totally recommend this to anyone who just wants an easy dessert after an evening meal.

my place names.

Again, seriously simple. Just cut out a template, trace and cut. Write out the names and stick it in your fork!

my microwave chips.

A bit hit and miss on the chip front. I tried salt and vinegar, but they just tasted like the salt ones. But I was surprised how crispy they were. 

my sock bun.

I loved it at first. But I find it hard to hide the sock, so I don't often wear it.

latest addition: my weekly board (with handy whiteboard marker to write on the glass!)

I love this so much! It is such a basic idea yet it works so well! I was hesitant about the whiteboard marker because I heard it wouldn't be as strong as a wet erase marker, but it works just fine and is much cheaper! My husband and I always use it and it's a great way to remember what's coming up that week.

If you want any hints on any of these ideas, please just ask!
