Pinterest...What?!?!?!?

Ok, so I keep hearing about this website called Pinterest.  I keep hearing my friends talk about it, seeing comments on Facebook, etc.  It was time to check it out.  Plus I hear people find great recipes on this site and I am always looking for new recipes to try.

This website is apparently a place for people to "pin" things they like on their page.  Hmmm...interesting.  I check it out and I spent some time perusing the site and left the site very confused.  I just didn't get it.  I then decided to give it another chance.  Nope, still don't get it.  On a positive note I did find two new recipes to make.  I still don't get the site though so I can't really say much else about it.  Since I found new recipes I will give it another chance.  Until then here are the two I found and made.  These are not my photos since I forgot to take pictures of the dishes before we ate our dinner.

The first was a Hawaiian chicken that was BEYOND EASY to make.  I loved it, but Andy thought it was way to sweet for him.  Here is the recipe.  It calls for the Hawaiian BBQ sauce, but I used the marinade instead.  Again, this is not my photo as I took it from their website.




I also made a beef mac bake that was extremely yummy.  This taste even better the next night for leftovers.  I baked for about 20 minutes and then broiled for almost 10 minutes since I did not make ahead of time and chilled like the blogger did.  Here is the recipe.
