Noodles & Co is delicious! You bite your tongue, she-devil!


I only went there once by myself. Maybe it's ok. I just kinda assumed Tutto was the same way but Madison has so many good places I wasn't going to try Tutto thinking it was a similar type of place. Now I know. So it must have more seating inside? It looks so small as we walk by.

CG> Do you want a traditional bow?

If it doesn't have to be, plus it appears your ribbon is wire-rimmed, try this:

Take the ribbon and make a figure-8 with it. Do this three to four times so they're on top of one another. Staple the ribbon together at the middle. Don't use all your ribbon on it.

"Fluff" the loops of the figure-8 so they stand up. Then, take another length of ribbon and tie it around the middle to hide the staple. Attach to wreath. How? Ummmmmmmm........not sure.

see, I got that I'm supposed to make loops/figure 8's with it, but it seems like my thumb and forefinger can't keep them under control. I've asked DH to make it as he's an engineer and good at spacial ****. I don't care if that has no impact, haha. I felt like I needed a bigger hand to keep the thing pinched. I tried to tie it with ribbon and like four loops had escaped. And yes, it is a wire ribbon.

I will try just doing opposite loops. I think part of the problem may have been trying to make loops at all angles instead of just across from each other and then fluffing after wiring them together.

There actually another room, but it is really small. That noodles and company (because it has multiple floors) can probably seat more people.

Her tiny little baby fingers don't allow her to do that.

I don't know where to go with this. Is it better to say my wife has the smallest hands ever, or use her gigantic hands as an excuse?
