Pinspired

So, it seems really crazy to me, but my life had a drastic change in it a couple of months back.

And, not, I’m not talking about this:

I’m talking about Pinterest.

It seems SO silly that something so simple has changed my life, but it really has!

I need to regularly update things I’m doing, trying, tasting, learning, etc from Pinterest. There are so many ideas out there for my house, my tummy, my kids, my LIFE that I’m finding on there!

Now, a side note. I maaaaay look on there when I should be doing other things. Like cleaning.

But, not sleeping. That is too precious.

Anyway, I have tried so many new recipes and have enjoyed a lot of them! There are some that are so yummy!! Here are some of my favorites: Creamy Chicken Taquitos, (OMG, seriously, make these NOW!), chicken and wild rice casserole, pineapple fried rice, make ahead muffin melts, chipotle rice, jalapeno popper dip, and creamy white chicken and artichoke lasagna (Oh. My. WORD!) to name a few. I'm trying to try at least one new recipe each week!

I also have started doing things inspired or found on Pinterest to help save money; I’ve made and frozen beans and chicken stock, made my own liquid laundry soap, dishwasher soap and a bunch of other household cleaners, weed killer, and other little things. I love that I’m saving money!

It has also helped give me ideas for activities for Kalayaand eventually Jakiah! We have made our own sensory tables, come up with crafts, painted with different things, tried new games and many other things! It’s given lots of alternatives to TV when I need Kalaya busy! I'm trying really hard to do at least one new activity per week and do repeated ones throughout each week.

I’ve also pinned a lot of ideas for organization and getting back in shape, but I’m still getting to those. 

Give me time. : )
