Introduction

Hi.

You've probably heard of Pinterest. If you haven't, head on over to http://pinterest.com and if you don't come out like this  then you have more self control than 11.7 million people. Congrats you!

I was a rabid new pinterester. I spent untold hours pressing the see more pins button. Then I got a bit discouraged, because really, I wasn't going to make anything on my 'Craft to Try' board, or buy any clothing from my 'Fashion' board, or bake anything on my 'For Those Rare Times I Use The Stove' board (obviously, I was pretty apt when I named that last one).

I want to. I'm just one of those people who can't force themselves to action before I am confronted with the big three: a goal, a structure and a deadline. So here is my experiment. I will attempt to live my life in a pinteresting way, I will blog the results in a semi-regular fashion, and I will do it for a year.

So to misquote the phrase which may or may have been a Chinese curse (yes, I've read the wiki article):
