People Pinning Your Blog to Pinterest

Photobucket

This morning, Natasha posted how you could find what people take from your blog and post to Pinterest.

This got me curious because when I check my pages and posts view in my STATS, I have about 20-30 people everyday that look at Haven's Mr. Potato Head Party or the Mario cupcakes that I made once.



All you need to do to check if your blog has any pins is to go to:
www.pinterest.com/source/insert the name of your blog.com
(example: www.pinterest.com/source/thestanfieldclan.com)

Anyway... I go to my source page and I see four of my images that have been repinned... and I feel freaking famous... but only for about two seconds.

Why?

Because some lady that re-pinned the Mr. Potato Head cake that I made for Haven commented, "Cute if I was done a little less sloppily." Sloppily?!

Ouch.



It was for a two year old... not a Cake Boss episode. And after mixing Cool Whip with chocolate frosting to get the color right, the texture wasn't great for a frosting knife to smooth.

And it was from the heart... even though my little Bubba just wanted a cupcake like the rest of his guest.

Anyway, I am making him a robot cake for his 3rd birthday this weekend. Hopefully, pinterest will be more kind to me. Ha.

Happy Wednesday! I'm off to buy new sheets for our bed... Haven had a stomach ache in the middle of the night on my good sheets, so I rolled them up and tossed them. Good excuse to go shoppin'.
