"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

The Pinterest Paradox

That sucking sound you heard...that was me getting caught in the Pinterest blackhole this week. It's dangerous because you have the illusion of getting things done...ideas percolate, taste buds are titillated, and you see so much beauty...when in reality, you lose a ton of time. Now, I'm not saying Pinterest isn't the awesomesauce (it is) but I am saying it's an great place to go intending to spend a little time looking and all of a sudden you are questioning where the hell your whole day has gone. Seriously, therein lies the Pinterest Paradox...you swear you've only looked for a little while but an unbelievable amount of time has passed.

That said, I have to share some of my favorite Pins this week...
This Baked Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken makes me drool just looking at it.
 
A double dose of eye candy...a gorgeous body adorned with a fab tattoo.
 
I'd like this dragon to sit on my dresser.
 
This made me laugh out loud. I adore Martha Stuart and can't wait to hear her speak at BlogHer but this is funny shit.
 
What woman doesn't like bling? Dragon bling is a plus in my book.  
Love this top even though I think it would make my hips look even bigger.
 
Something else that makes me drool just looking at it...yum.

Have you seen anything to titillate your eyes or tempt the taste buds? Share with me. You know you wanna!

I tend to do a lot of pinterest surfing at work when it's slow. Doesn't matter as much since I'm already stuck there and if my work is all caught up why not.
My pinning goes in fits and spurts. Today? I've got a whole lot of nada. But I'll drool over yours. :)
I love Pinterest, too. It's so soothing and fun! That Martha Stewart pin is hilarious!
I haven't been on Pintrest in a while, but enjoyed seeing what you shared here. That chicken looks yummy and that pin of Snoop and Martha is awesome and do true!
