Buying is Cheating

So far, the thing I miss the most about my move from Auckland to Wellington (and also, from a house to an apartment), is not having a garden. Have no fear - Pinterest is full of 'loft' garden ideas! And so important was this to me that I guaranteed success by stamping out any need for me to do anything and therefore wreck it.

PINTEREST

REALITY

OVERALL - 10/10
Whoop whoop! Love it ... the secret is revealed ... just buy it. But will I in the future? Not a chance.

What's this all about, then?

I've never been compelled to do something by the internet nearly as much as the moment I saw the Apple Pies in an Apple post.

Recently I saw that post is one of the most pinned on Pinterest (http://mashable.com/2012/02/04/popular-pictures-on-pinterest/) and I wondered, how many people, like me, made that apple pie? Was theirs any good? What other stuff have people made that was really rubbish?

And then I thought I'd share my experiences. If you've got some you'd like to show me, then that would be awesome.

Items are 'rated' out of 10. Anything 6-10 is a win for Pinterest; 0 - 5 is 'Reality'.

So far, the score is Pinterest 13: Reality: 8

Oh yeah - and this is me on Pintrest: http://pinterest.com/Melstar23/
