I was originally hesitant to join Pinterest because I assumed it would become a black hole for my time. I eventually decided to give it a trial run, and at that time was strict with myself about what I would Pin: only items I sincerely thought I would make. Are you familiar with the force I was resisting? The one where you compile beautiful, creative, ambitious web “stuff” that never translates to a more beautiful, creative, or ambitious life?
Over time I started to trust myself more, though. If you follow me you know I pin with abandon and use my boards as a way to organize the images and ideas that inspire me. I reference my own boards often, whether to find a particular page I recall pinning or in search of motivation to live life well or create more. As I amble down the path to defining my voice and style, I even started a Pinterest inspiration board to help capture what moves me (which, as far as I can tell, is coffee and pops of color).

I have Pinterest to thank for one of the solutions to my hydration dilemma. I am, in my normal state, a person of great hydration needs and pregnancy has only strengthened my thirst. I didn’t know I could get bored with water until I did. Seltzer water with lime became my go-to until I kept seeing pins for infused water recipes, and now I’m all over making my own naturally-flavored waters and am thinking they will be sticking around our house until fall. I can’t even imagine how thirsty I’ll be once I’m nursing in the depths of summer.
On Hellobee this week I’m sharing some tips for making herb- and fruit-infused water at home, along with four naturally-flavored water recipes. Head on over and let me know in the comments how you keep motivated to stay hydrated and any infused water combinations you love – I’m always looking for more inspiration.
