Pinteresting Things I've Done

I've made quite a few dishes that I found on Pinterest recently.

I, unfortunately, did not take a photo of what mine looked like.... 

rest assured that the Pinterest photos look a thousand times better than what mine would've looked like!

::panko breaded baked zucchini sticks::

I thought these were REALLY good.

I didn't follow the directions exactly..

I didn't salt the zucchini and let it sit to rid it of excess liquid

{or whatever the reason is for salting}

I also didn't make the dip.

It looks amazing though.

{I didn't have a food processor when I made this... but I do now... so? perhaps the dip is in my future!}

::Cauliflower Pancakes::

I thought these were really good!

I didn't use  cayenne pepper in mine, but I put it in Jerk Faces.

He liked these as well.

I topped with a little more cheese.

::Pumpkin Lust Pie::

This was pretty good.

VERY easy to make.

It uses a seasonal pumpkin spice pudding.

{Who knew they made seasonal pudding??}

::Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars::

Jerk Face liked these.

I just thought they were okay.

{maybe if I added more caramel??}

::Salted Caramel Shortbread::

You need a candy thermometer for these!

I was pretty disappointed with these.

Mine didn't look anything like the photo.

{Maybe because I didn't follow the directions, and I made the caramel too early, and had to re-melt it?}

My caramel to shortbread ratio was off.

It was more of a thin topping of caramel.

boo.

{And I couldn't find flaky salt anywhere...  

and by "anywhere," I mean that neither Kroger nor Meijer had it}

And now, on to the only crafty thing I did from Pinterest recently:

I fell in love with these burlap stockings:

They sell them on Etsy.

But?

I got a sewing machine for Christmas last year, and I'm training to be a contestant on Project Runway.

{Look for me in 2022}

So I decided to tackle this project and make them myself.

I used a red felt for the lining, and the leftover burlap from my Pinteresting Basket project.

Then, I just added some Christmas glitz:

I even made one for Mojo:

And now for a little funny:

I am dedicating this pin to my parents.

They love Paula.

(who wouldn't?)
