Craft time :)

I got an email from JoAnn's last night, informing me of a huge sale they were having today, and sending me a 60% off coupon.  Of course I would have to be straight up crazy to not use it.

So, tonight, I left the kids at home with The Hubs, and trekked on over to JoAnn's.

Let's just say, I scored big! Fleece was 60% off, so was all the cutesy cotton, also the yarn, and the paper letters.  There was so much other good stuff on sale, but I had to limit myself.

I bought some CUTE green polka dot fleece for a bathrobe for Cricket for Christmas (she has been begging for one for months now), some adorable baby fleece for a baby blanket for my newest niece (I have 8 of them!), fabric to make a matching baby doll mei tai wrap for Cricket for Christmas, and some yarn and paper letter to make this:

Let's be honest, this took me 4 hours, yes 4.  Turns out, it's not as easy as it looks on pinterest.  Having little hands trying to help, wasn't much help either :)

Next big project besides Christmas presents is our new bedspread! I cannot wait, I have had the fabric for far too long now.

Dinner

Confession: I already admitted I haven't cooked for weeks.  But, this is the meal I plan to cook, when I have a kitchen to actually cook in again :)

Corn Flake Chicken and Revolutionary Mac and Cheese (I omit the mustard)

This is our favorite meal right now.  How genius is it to cook the mac and cheese in milk instead of making a roux? Wish I had know about this years ago!  And the chicken is so moist and yummy.  My Cricket loves it too!

Thank you pinterest!

Hoarding

Confession: I am secretly (Ok, it's no secret) obsessed with Hoarders.
Confession: I am also obsessed with pinterest.

I found this the other day, and it literally made me LOL.

Isn't that the truth? If I had all the item's I've pinned I'd so be on the next episode of Hoarders Buried Alive.
