I am attempting to resuscitate my blog. In my attempt of finding fodder to chat about, I realized that my obsession with Pinterest has taken the place of my blogging interest (well kinda). I then had an epiphany of sorts. I figured I would blog about the things I have tried, or projects that were inspired by my Pinterest finds! It's a win/win for me....it gives me something to write about, and motivation to try some of the 2,073 things I have pinned. (That way I can justify the endless amount of time I spending pouring over all of the pinners, pins I follow) :)
Here goes. Earlier this week I attempted to make Pumpkin Spice Brownies, Using just a box of brownie mix and a can of pumpkin puree. Result: Extremely chewy brownies, that left me wishing I had just made pumpkin spice frosting and made regular old brownies.
Now I DID frost them with homemade butter cream pumpkin spice frosting..... That was delish! Super easy too. You need:
2 sticks of butter
2 C of powdered sugar
about 3 T pumpkin spice seasoning!
So my advice, Make the brownies according to the directions and frost LIBERALLY!
Next I tried this easy to do, Topsy Tail High Bun. I have an appointment to see the Doctor today, and didn't feel like messing with my hair. Result: Awesome easy and elegant Up Do. I honestly think it took all of 5 minutes!
I added a flower....well because, my Daughter and I are in LOVE with them, and in South Texas it just seems to make every outfit feel more Texan! ;)
Today my outfit is inspired by Pinterest. I wish I had a Maxi skirt as long as the one below. I am 5'8 and it's hard to find ANY skirts that length on me. I won't give up hunting for one though. Maybe I will have to find a pattern to MAKE one?!
