Today's public service announcement

Perhaps it is premature for me to be all evangelical about my new love Pinterest, but I can't help myself.

I love this site! Basically, you can create web collages of all of your favorite stuff. I signed up after reading about it on one my favorite home design/diy blog but didn't really 'get' it until I realized it was the perfect place to log all of the random things I've been starring in Google Reader for the last five years.

My problem with google reader (or bookmarks in general) is that it is easy for the stuff you liked/ wanted to make/ thought you should buy to get buried and never be thought of again. With pinterest, you can look and see pics of all of the recipes you wanted to make, or pillows you wanted to sew. You can create as many different boards as you want, so its a great way to visually organize links for different projects.

Honestly, I probably won't make cinnamon-and-sugar almonds or a fat quarter tote now that I have pinterest. But at least now I can remind myself that I one day wanted to...
