Tips and Tricks

If you have an ipad, check out the app Pictacular. It’s very similar to Pinstagram, which you can use on a computer. It’s an easy way to view instagram photos since the app is really made for phones and either looks small and silly or giant and magnified on the ipad.
Check out The Skimm for an awesome email summary of new headlines each morning.
Did you know you can set up pin alerts and get emailed when people pin something from your blog to pinterest?

Pretty cool, right?!

Hi Lindsay, this is my first comment on your blog and I’m lovin’ it! I love the organization of your posts and friendly graphics and interface, and I cannot wait to join our next Foodie Pen Pal. What a wonderful idea!
I’m curious about how you put your picture collage together? I’m guessing you might be using a phone app to do that? Would you mind sharing which app would that be? Thanks so much and look forward to hearing from you soon.
Josie recently posted..Great Class!

Kammie @ Sensual Appeal recently posted..Banana Bread Muffins (low calorie/no sugar added/high protein)
Thanks for linking my post! I’m glad that my experience is being shared with more people, as we hear lots of great things about ACV but not so much about the negative side effects.
Parita @ myinnershakti recently posted..Chocolate Chip Granola Bars
Loved all the bytes, Linds!
And yeah – ACV – I love it, but as with anything – your mileage may vary! Some lotions that people “swear by” (and I’m sure it works great for them!) made my skin very angry.
