a little crafty...

So, I have been spending more time on work and less time on blogging (which is good, in a way), but it means that for the past two weeks there have been no SOTW (sandwich of the week - duh!).  Last week was full of lean cuisines.  This week has been partially lean cuisines and partially left overs.  Tomorrow's meal is SUPER exciting and I will definitely talk about it.

The craft bug is still in me - especially after going to Binders this afternoon.  My dear friend Claire's mom has really talked it up to my mom... so by word of mouth, I heard Binders was awesome.  Also, I just HAPPENED to have a 50% off Scoutmob for Binders that expired TODAY!  Meant to be, for sure.  I was able to get my new self-healing mat and a fabulous (I hope) rotary cutter for $25.  Super fab!

I'm meeting up with my cousins Jami and Brant tonight for sushi (thanks to a groupon) and I decided to take her a little something:





So simple, but I am pretty pumped.  My new bloggy friend Kristen over at peace, love, and crafts totally inspired me to get felty with some adorable paperclips she created: Girlie Paperclips

Easy, too!  and inexpensive!  I just washed out an old spaghetti sauce jar, filled it with bath salts (Thanks to my sis for giving my 25 lbs of them.... AKA a lifetime supply!), added some ribbon, a felt flower, and a button.  I went monochromatic but the finishes are all different :)  Pretty excited.
