ME domesticated?

So my blog that I had finished jsut deleted itself which I am not happy about. But anyways, I bought a sewing machine this week! yes me with a sewing machine. It was a half impulse buy, I decided that I had to get one because I've had to sew things like 3 times now in the past 2 months, and seeing how I am a horrible hand sewer (I'd prpbably win the award for worst hand sewer if there was one) I decided that I must get one. while fiddling with a few there was an older couple just watching me the whole time. After about twn minutes I found a cheap enough one that wouldn't make me broke. I was walking up the aisle and I realized that I wasn't sure if it came with a needle or not so as I was standing in the middle of the row half way up to the front the older couple came up to me out of no where and told me to go back to the aisle that we were jsut in and that the needles were right acrossed the the machines, they even told me what kind to get! after I found the needles I was waiting in line at the register and they popped out of no where again! This time they asked me if I found everything ok and asked what me me decided to get the one I got and not a Singer? I was like uhh.... I don't know It looked nicer and easier to use?
After the 45 minutes it took me and a a friend to figure out work it and after the half a dozen times I had to throw our kitten across the room, she was tryying to sit on the machine, I took it over to the sorority house and showed 3 of my pledge sisters how to sew! yes, me, teaching others how to sew. Today even I am gonna help one of them sew their holloween costume!
So besides sewing I have taken up real cooking, not jsut things out of boxes! The only two things that I have mastered so far are Aunt Rose's fish and Melissa's cranberry orange but salade stuff. On my list to master is Sweedish pancakes, Fudge, pie, cabbage rolls (now that I know the secret) and other really yummy foods!
