When I discovered Pinterest I started trying out a lot of the recipes and DIY projects. I had some successes and some failures. It was great when it worked but very disappointing when it failed. So I decided to make a blog where people can come and see what worked and what didn’t. Hopefully it will save you some time and money. I will follow the instructions exactly and report what happens. To see the original recipe click on the link under the picture.
The projects will be graded as follows;
Great @@@@ Good @@@ Okay @@ Poor @

@@@@ This looked really good so I thought I would try it.  It is called Pineapple Cheese Ball. It was quick and easy and very tasty. The only thing I would do different from the recipe is add a pinch of salt.

@@@@ This recipe is everything it say it is.  It was easy to make and it only took me about 20 minutes for prep.  Beware though, because it has fat from a pound of bacon and 4 cups of cream you need to be strong and stop eating after 1 bowl.  Trust me you will want to eat more.  Loaded Baked Potato Soup

@@  Miss Jean's Peach Cobbler  recipe was accurate but I found that it was too dry.  And there wasn't enough flavor in the cake portion.  I guess I will keep looking for the perfect peach cobbler.
@@@ Man-Pleasing Chicken  recipe was good but the cooking time for me was 30 min. instead of 40 and I couldn't get the chicken to caramelize like in the pictures of the recipe.  I forgot to put some of the sauce on for the picture so it looks a little dry but is wasn't.

@@@@ This baby snuggie was on Pinterest when I made it but I can't find it there anymore.
I used the small crochet hoops that you use to make hats with.  I just made it long enough to fit my grandbaby.  I love this!  It keeps their arms nice and snug and it keeps them warm while they sleep and they can't kick it off.
 @@@@ Taco Corn Bread Casserole.  I followed this recipe exactly and it worked just liked it said. It was easy and tasty.
