I neglected this blog because Pinterest essentially did exactly what this blog intended. Unfortunately, when I attempted to get on Pinterest this morning to pin a recipe, I was informed that my place of employment had now blocked the site. Oh how horrible for me, but how lucky for this blog. So, I will start posting again. You're welcome (unless there's no one actually reading this anymore then... welp, you're welcome Future-Lauren, I'm sure you'll want to come back to something later). And if you're following me on Pinterest, there's a good chance you'll see these things posted again because really, Pin boards are just so much fun...

this looks like a great alternative apple pie recipe.

perhaps i should try it this fall.

cup of jo posted a good etiquette tip today.

i thought it was such a good point. 

When you're introducing someone, you should always say their name first and their relationship to you second.

Wrong: "This is my sister, Lucy."
Right: "This is Lucy, my sister."

That way, you spotlight the person--not their connection to you. It's a small thing, but it makes a lovely difference! I just learned this, but I'm doing it from now on.

i'm not a big fan of pasta.

i like it.

i don't crave it.

cup of jo posted backpacks today.

i feel like i need to put up a strong front against them

(though i wouldn't wear one unless i was a student)
