Bwahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!! OK I know that’s a little crass but come on! I did a little LOL when I saw it! I found that on Pinterest. A few people have mentioned it lately and it sounded cool so I figured I’d give it a shot. If you haven’t heard of it its basically a virtual pinboard. You upload pictures of things you love and want to remember. With all of this wedding stuff going on I thought it would come in handy. But when I tried to sign up I ran into a speed bump on the way to my pinboard. Apparently you can’t just sign up like Facebook or Twitter. They have to send you an invite! So I asked for an invite and I get an email saying that I was on a waiting list to join???

Hi!

Thanks for joining the Pinterest waiting list. We’ll be sure to send you an invite soon.

In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter for Pinterest news and updates. You can also explore a few pinboards.

We’re excited to get you pinning soon!

Um? An invite to social networking? BLAH! What are we back in high school? None the less I am still interested in this site so I guess I’ll just wait for them to choose me like dodge ball. 🙂 But in the meantime can you do a me a favor? If you already have Pinerest let me know how you like it!

The other day I was daydreaming about when the fiance and I purchase our first home and what fun it will be to have a housewarming party! I started thinking about the type of party I would want and came to the conclusion that without a doubt it would have to include some sort of wine food pairing. You see the fiance and I love sharing a glass of vino and cheese is my all time favorite food. However a good block of cheese can get quite pricey!! So after doing a little web surfing (do people still say that?) I found this awesome article! Some connoisseurs’ website paired really good wines with fast food! Brilliant! How funny (and cheap) would that be to have some yummy wine with a bucket of KFC or a BiG Mac!! Haha, the seafood lovers can have a filet-o-fish! I bet none of the dudes coming to the party would complain 🙂 Now I know that the wine get get a little expensive too but there are plenty of delicious wines available for under $15.00. Dog House  and Little Black Dress both have really good red and white selections. Plus the names are adorable! If you have one of these funky pairing parties let me know how it goes!
