Happy Friday Joy Chasers. Its #FlashbackFriday, #FanPageFriday and also time for the latest on the Pinterest Project.
First up, #FlashbackFriday! #FlashbackFriday is a blogger link up. Every Friday on Chasing Joy we flash back to some of our older posts to give them a moment in the spotlight. It’s fun and a good way to increase blog traffic, find new blogs to read, and new readers for your blog. Pick any older post from your blog and add it below. You can also increase blog traffic by sharing your post on the Chasing Joy Facebook page and on Twitter using the hashtag #FlashbackFriday. Also, I will Pin your post to the new #FlashbackFirday Pinterest Board.

** Please Note** Linkys only work when everyone plays fair. Be sure to visit at least two other blogs from the link up and leave a comment. Pick any two you like or keep it simple and visit the two blogs linked up before yours. If you link up early be sure to come back and visit blogs that linked up after you.
This week I am linking up Putting Me Under. This post is a follow up about my experience with hypnosis or weight loss. My favorite posts from last week’s linky are Easy Peeling Hard Boiled Eggs and Our First Date
Now it is your turn. Add your link below.
Before you head over to Facebook or #FanPageFriday let’s talk about what I did for the Pinterest Project this week. The Pinterest Project is a year long project where I will bring a Pin to life. Every week for 2015 I will take at least one pin and attempt to include it in my real life. This week I tried three pins; two recipes pins and one fitness pin.
The recipe pins were for Strawberries Dipped in Greek Yogurt and Lemon Butter Chicken. The berries in yogurt was definitely a Pinterest fail. The Greek yogurt was too thick to coat the berries without making a mess. Then when the froze the strawberries were too hard to bite into. When they thawed the yogurt made a mess on your fingers. The Lemon Butter Chicken was fantastic. Not as hard as I thought and way tastier. I will be making it again. Pinterest Win!!!
The fitness pin is actually more like a one week health guide with exercises or each day and some food and relaxation recommendations. Now I did not stick with this Pin the whole week but I’ll still label it a win. It got me moving more and I had a salad for dinner one night when I would not normally have had it. I will revisit this pin again. Pinterst win!

Head over to the Chasing Joy Facebook Page. Find the #FanPageFriday post. Tag and /or add a link to your Facebook page in the comments. Then like a few of the other pages that link up. To boost engagement visit a few of the pages and saying hello and letting them know where to find you on Facebook. The more energy you put into it the better your results.
