Brandon has done the cooking at night and I usually do breakfast, but this time it was my turn! <br />

I made Artichoke Chicken and Roasted Potatoes! It tasted a lot better than the picture looks...and don't worry, I had 2 pieces of chicken cuz they are so tiny. haha<br />

It is pretty awesome. I went to Joann's to look for fabric to make holiday blankets but they didn't have any cute stuff so I just browsed the store.<br />
<br />
I wanted a case, but I was just thinking the normal plastic case would do -- until I saw this:<br />
<br />

It's awesome right? The coolest thing, it matches perfectly with our bedspread (kinda weird, huh?). It is so much cooler than the plastic white ones.<br />
<br />
This one has:<br />
<br />
<ul><li>wheels</li>
<li>a handle</li>
<li>pretty fabric design</li>
<li>storage</li>
<li>(not has) is AMAZING!</li>
</ul><br />
<br />
I'm glad I went to Joann's today because this was on sale! So if you want to get yourself one of these (this was the only design I saw) then head on over to your local JoAnn's! It was on sale from $79.99 to $39.99! When you can buy a plastic one -- that doesn't roll -- for $25-$35.<br />

<br />
My mom gave me a sewing machine for Christmas 2010 and I just opened it September 8, 2011. Yeeeaaaahhh, pretty bad. It took me FOREVER to figure out how to thread the darn thing, but once I did that, I was ready to go! I didn't have any problems, except keeping the lines straight. :-/<br />

Many of you know, but, I just got married (July 16, 2011) and we had a Mad Hatter Bridal Shower for me, so since we had some extra crazy fabric from the tablecloths I decided to use that as my "scratch paper."<br />
<br />
I started out making squares, and so I have called my creations a pot holder and coasters. :)<br />

Hopefully within the coming days/weeks/months/years, I will be better at sewing, but as of now,I am pretty impressed with myself!

<br />
So...I've started about 4 blogs in my day, but have not kept up with any of them. This blog is titled Creatively Uncreative, because I feel like I have so many ideas and want to do so many things with crafts and stuff, but I just can't seem to get the creativity part down.<br />
<br />
Here is my journey in being Creatively Uncreative :)Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11191692478684403367noreply@blogger.com0
