I absolutely love Pinterest. It has slowly become my go-to site when researching something, or planning a project, or needing a gift idea. I waste spend lots of time pinning stuff.
There are so many great ideas, recipes, signs, and decorating tips, I wouldn’t even know how to begin describing how great the site is. I don’t care who you are, you WILL find something on there that makes you say “Why didn’t I think of that?” or “What a great idea that is!” On more than one occasion, I felt the overwhelming urge to bust out the glue gun. Only instead of getting my glue gun out, I didn’t.
But I do plenty of daydreaming. And I get inspired. And crazy as this sounds, last week, I got all excited about a cooking tip.
If you know me in real life, you know that I am not known in my social circles for culinary expertise. Rather, I am known for being the loudest friend most of my friends have.
A fact that I take great pride in.
Somebody’s gotta be the loud one, right?
ANYway.
I found a great cooking tip on Pinterest and I know that it works because I tried it.
When cooking something on your stove top that can boil over, you know, because you are talking on the phone to Becky, or going over homework, or hung up on the Facebook, place a wooden spoon on the pot.
The wooden spoon will keep the pot from boiling over.

You. Are. Welcome.
That’s what I learned this week.
Now, what did YOU learn?

You have got to be kidding! I will be trying that out as soon as I get home. No wooden spoon here. :/
I use this trick all the time- love it! Bamboo spoons hold up bettr though- wooden ones will eventually split from the heat and moisture.
Really? I absolutely never knew that. I bet I could still boil it over, but I am going to give it a try. As soon as I find buy a wooden spoon!

Thanks for sharing your Pinterest knowledge! I am avoiding getting addicted (especially because I am disastrously incompetent with a glue gun) so I appreciate having one of the best tips passed on. I never heard that one before!
