i love pinterest. i've found lots of fun recipes, and a few of them are actually possible even for me to try, and that's super awesome. sometimes i click on a delicious-looking picture, and it takes me to a blog post with the recipe on it ... somewhere. surely, there's a recipe! it's a cooking blog, after all. i can tell by the adorable kitschy kitchen images and the cleverly cookly blog title. but it seems like a personal account of a winter's day between a midwestern woman and her adoring husband, and their little dog, butterbean. after finally giving up on finding the secret to making the delicious-looking food item, i see it ... a picture of a bunch of groceries on a kitchen counter! oh my goodness! apparently the snow inspired this woman to make a recipe she saw on another blog (insert link to second posturing blog post by another midwestern woman with a penchant for winter weather, hand-knitted hats, and soup). [hint: do not follow that link unless absolutely necessary] after the photo of what seems to be ingredients, i also see a picture of some chopped up veggies and a collection of herbs. and another of a nice looking pot. or sometimes a crockpot. skipping down to the last picture, the delicious-looking one i saw on pinterest. THEN! a list of ingredients (pictured above). and a recipe. but this soup has lots of onions in it. and kale. and some sort of herb i've never heard of, but i'm sure i can find. a whole chicken? really? who has that kind of time!?!? repin anyway. maybe someday i'll have a chef.
