Oh, Pinterest.

I joined Pinterest early last fall, when a few friends and I were hosting a bridal shower and one kept sharing all of her ideas via Pinterest. The two of us not on there couldn't see them without joining, so... I did.

I looked at her ideas, agreed they were cute and then never went back to Pinterest.

I honestly wouldn't have given it much of a second thought had I not started getting email notifications.

Beth is following you on Pinterest. Erin is following you on Pinterest. Amanda is following you on Pinterest. Samantha is following you on Pinterest. Amy is following you on Pinterest. Kara is following you on Pinterest. Ashley is following you on Pinterest. And on and on and on!

I started to feel guilty every time I'd get another one of these email notifications. I even posted about it on Facebook and got a bunch of likes and comments from others in the same boat.

That was in November. The guilt continued, but I didn't return to Pinterest.

Until today.

When the past two hours of my life were sucked away as I looked at things like Strawberry Heart Oreos and Garlic Cheesy Bread and the cutest most creative jello shots you could ever imagine! And I can't forget the earlaces for my earbuds, a cool photo family tree, cute love map, nifty wall art and pretty jewelry. And so. much. more.

So now I'm hungry, feel compelled to host a dinner party, get crafty and shop.

I think maybe I liked the guilt better.
