A Scrapbook, a Sheep and an Afternoon Snack

I spent two hours on the internet for some good finds. I downloaded around seven zip files for my digital scrapbook templates and kits. I am immensely enjoying it. It's not as easy as I thought it would be. There are tons of revisions until I am finally satisfied with what I am able to produce.

To make my life easier in my first attempt in digital scrapbooking, I used the templates from Shabby Princess' site. No sweat! That is the first picture to your left when reading this post. That's my daughter with the mirror to her back that's why you're seeing double. :) The picture on the right I did from scratch. Nothing magnificent but well, I had my first piece. That's my daughter again reading her Amelia book taken at Five Cows after our movie date. :D

My daughter is currently a great fan of Shaun the Sheep. I have not watched this yet so I couldn't relate when she keeps on telling me about it while waiting for the start of the movie, Bratz. It's shown in the Philippines at Disney Channel, 5:30 PM. I am still at the office at that time.

I did a little research on it. The website looks cute. I learned from Wikipedia that Shaun the Sheep has an inquisitive, mischievous nature which distinguishes him from the other sheep, and leads him into tricky situations from which he usually recovers. He is popular, and is a natural leader. He is also a moral character who will try to "make things right".

That sounds good. This animated series has no dialogue but only sheep sounds. Like my daughter puts it, it's a "silent movie, only "meee". I'm off to You Tube now to check this out.

Cookie Fudge Ham and Cheese Fritters
Aglio Olio Smoker's Cake Menu

I decided to have a half-day last Friday at the office to have a movie date with my daughter. We had our snack at Five Cows. I enjoyed their aglio olio. The mix of olive oil and garlic are just perfect to my taste. No aftertaste. My daughter had her cookie fudge. It's tall and looks really appetizing. My daughter said it's good. Proof is she consumed it all. I find the smoker's cake cute so I ordered it. It's just a chocolate ice cream with graham crackers as base. Lots of marshmallows on top which look like cigarette butts hence the name of the cake. I guess what is lacking is a creamier ice cream for my not so-ice-creamy taste buds. :)
