What do I need to record my own music digitally?

Question

I play guitar and compose music. I have Music Creator 5 software and want to construct a simple set-up for recording voice and guitar on a digital track. I've read allot about this but it seems more complicated that it should be. What are the basic items I need to accomplish my goal?

pro tools will give you as many options as you would need for this basic recording but will not limit you like garage band or some other simple program. 

You get these things and you'd be set...

A good audio-editing program (GarageBand works really well for this, I've found)
A good microphone
Ideas and motivation
A quiet place to work (you don't want background noise when you record)
