Pinterest Par-tay!

ok so I'm not gonna lie. I have a love/hate relationship with good ol' pinterest

I rarely go on there and if I do it's only for a few minutes to find exactly what I'm looking for 

(I literally time myself and only allow 15 min and if I exceed that I go looking elsehere otherwise three in the morning rolls around and I'm like, "what happened, where am I?")

I keep hearing from everyone I need to be on there more and it's a great marketing tool, and I totes get that and I agree with everything everyone is telling me

it's just that I literally get lost in that land of fabulousness 

so I haven't been on there in months

(I know, I know please don't judge me)

well, my pinning dry spell ended a couple weeks ago when I was invited to my very first Pinterest party from my girl Kristen. 

The purpose of a Pinterest party is to actually make the things you are pinning.

genius right?!

so the host picks four things 

you pay a set fee and the idea is to have all the DIY's completed while munching on yummy treats and having a happy crafting girl's night

Stoked much?

I was, until I asked what I could to bring to eat and she said anything from one of your Pinterest boards

uhhh?

say what?

I have never pinned food, like i did once upon a time during the holidays 

so I shamelessly went on Pinterest just to start pinning foods that I could whip up, I was searching and searching for easy quick summer treats when it HIT me

I have tons of things I would love to make

and besides my schedule is so swamped I don't want to risk wasting time making something new for it to be a flop

plus MY this girl I once worked with recipe for Oreo Truffles are da bomb and are ridiculously easy to make

DING!

lightbulb just lit up

I will make the truffles, take pics, blog recipe and the PIN IT!

yup, I know I kind of cheated but come on really this was so much easier and besides I have received quite a few texts and emails requesting this recipe so look out recipe to follow

I realize now that I should've just kept all of this to myself but too late, I already found these images and wrote out this entire post so

PUBLISH!
