13 Things I Bought While I Ran Errands on Wednesday (Thursday Thirteen #4)

Thirteen Things that I Bought While I Ran Errands on Wednesday Okay...so I'm pretty tired and not being really all that creative. Sorry! But, here is a highlight (not the entire list) of some of the things that I bought while Molly and I ran errands on Wednesday. (We were, in particular, going out to look for stuff for making Noah's First Communion banner, but that wasn't all we picked up.) 1. Self adhesive felt letters and numbers 2. A variety of sheets of felt, including solid color, self-adhesive backed, and sparkly 3. Puffy paint in both regular colors and glitter color. 4. A tiara for Molly. 5. Shrinky Dink "paper" 6. Xyron 150 refill (the permanent adhesive type) 7. A refill for my Hermafix tab gun 8. Beads (only some on clearance) 9. Bagels & Cream Cheese 10. Bread (Whole grain white) 11. Whole wheat English muffins 12. Arm & Hammer Laundry Detergent 13. A Baby Bottle Pop

WFMW Backwards: Favorite Party Foods & Sewing Machine Tips?

It's the first Wednesday of the month, and so there is always a theme at Works for Me Wednesday. The theme this month is again a "backwards" edition. So, instead of giving a tip, we ask for advice.

I just couldn't narrow down my question -- and so I had to pick two that I have been thinking of.

1. What are your favorite party foods? This can be desserts, salads, dips...whatever! Just something you love to have at a party. You can post a recipe (or link to one) or just post the general idea. For instance, I would say Spinach Dip in King Hawaiian Bread, since I always have that at a party. So...I can't wait to hear your great suggestions!

2. I would love some recommendations on a new sewing machine! Or, if you don't have a specific recommendation -- what are some features that I should definitely look for (or avoid) in a new sewing machine?

Thanks a ton!!!!

Be sure to check out Works for Me Wednesday this week and see if you can offer up tips and information to other bloggers!
