I go to "just look for one minute for one thing", and the next thing I know it's 2:00 a.m. and I'm pinning things I will never make, eat, wear, whatever.

I LOVE pinterest. Tons of great crafts for various occasions, gift ideas, recipes, etc.

Decorating, art tutorials, images of all kinds. To paraphrase Alice -- "...you can find anything you want..." and referencing another Alice, '...down the rabbit hole...' as another poster said.

I don't find the site's navigation aspects very user-friendly, though.
