oh pinterest, what did i do without you

As inspired by Nicole from Simple Organic, here are a few things that I tried out in September from Pinterest.  Seriously, what did I do without pinterest.  I was way less crafty and less creative with my cooking.

On the food front:

 We tried this pasta recipe.  It really was just a fancy baked mac n cheese.  I added broccoli to it to up the nutrition.  It was good, but not great.

 

I started adding oatmeal to smoothies and it was so easy.  I'll probably try soaking the oatmeal overnight when I remember.  Great way to get oatmeal in Hudson.

 

These were super easy and delicious.  I made a bunch for the freezer so we'll see how they turn out.

This chicken salad was our lunch one day.  Amazing.  I could eat it every day.  So so good!

 

On the crafty side:

 I made this cute wreath for our front door.  I smile every time I pull into the driveway.  I love fall!

My version:

And then I went on an accesory making kick and made all of these.   The scarf was super easy.  The necklace a bit more complicated.

Tonight, Melissa is having a pinterest party! I'm excited to get some craft time.  I'll probably just cut out a bunch of stuff for the craft fair, but it will be fun to hang out with the girls while I do it.
