So, while I am still trying to come up with topics, here is a quick post inspired by Pinterest and my &#8220;sister from a different mister&#8221;, Crystal.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know, Pinterest is a virtual bulletin board. It allows you to &#8220;pin&#8221; things from all over the internet into a more organized version of Google Image search. You can spend hours on there,\u00c2\u00a0our friend Dave rather accurately\u00c2\u00a0described it as, &#8220;Fantasy Football for women.&#8221;\u00c2\u00a0It also serves to show exactly how insanely non-creative I am compared to 90% of women out there. My favorite aspect of it, besides about 999,999 recipes I need to try, is the problem solving side. People come up with AMAZING ideas I would never have thought of.<\/p>\n<p>I could do a whole other post (and probably will) on the couple ideas I have &#8220;stolen&#8221; from Pinterest, but this is about one certain thing. Crystal found a post about how you can keep sheet sets together by storing them in the matching pillow cases. Now this is insanely clever, no argument. I learned this trick awhile ago, I&#8217;ve since forgot where, but it is handy. Although, here is my problem;\u00c2\u00a0Martha Stewart originated the idea (I guess) and she says it will look like this:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_8yhqQQZGQf0\/TUwaLKSY8HI\/AAAAAAAAEYU\/SzM5_PJXXIY\/s1600\/mld106561_0111_bedding1_l.jpg\" alt=\"What Martha says my linen closet would look like\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0Mine actually looks like this:<\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.onlytwopeople.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/2012-02-15-20.07.04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-244 alignnone\" title=\"What it actually looks like\" src=\"http:\/\/www.onlytwopeople.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/2012-02-15-20.07.04-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.onlytwopeople.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/2012-02-15-20.07.04-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.onlytwopeople.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/2012-02-15-20.07.04-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0And this is after I spent time making sure I folded them &#8220;neatly&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah we might have let that whole blogging thing slide for a bit.
