Disaster Thwarted

Tonight's Create meeting could have been a big disappointment, although the plan seemed airtight enough.  The goal was to make burp cloths.  Four girls, three sewing machines, cloth diapers and fabric all washed and pressed... the only problem was that one machine was broken and the other two of us forgot to bring our foot peddles.  Whoops!  So without the equipment our burp cloths didn't pan out... could have been a disaster, but...
The disaster was thwarted when Leslie and I made the most amazing discovery... Trader Joe's!!  Oh to say that I'm in love is so inadequate!  I had a moment on every isle!  The Pomegranate Limeade, the WHITE balsamic vinegar, Oregon Chi Tea, alphabet pasta, super-mega cheap hummus... it was almost too much for me to handle.  I've never hugged my groceries, but tonight was a first.  I love you Trader Joe's!  Who cares about burp cloths!
