Dec 10 week 2 of DDJYC

Well the December Daily album is humming along, in conjunction with the Journal your Christmas. It's 2, 2, 2albums in one. I'm journaling our daily activities, no mater how mundane some days and following the JYC prompts for a 2 page effect. It's very freeing to do an album just for us, no worries about credits or keeping track or posting in galleries. Scrapping for fun! Love it! Yes some days are half done, some days are waiting for shadowing and some are done. I just need a couple hours to polish them off and then on to week 2!

Dec/1/08 - Day one Dec. Daily Journal Your Christmas Extravaganza

OK that needs a shorter name.
DDJYC? nah to acronymy.
Day one? not festive enough

December Christmas Journal. hmm that might be it.
But I reserve the option to change my mind at anytime ;)

Day One. Outside decorating.

1. Gave directions for the "vision" to my elves. Check
2. Took photos, Check
3. Decorating done? Nope, but it's a work in progress. If it's done by the end of the week, I'm happy.

Ok now off to scrap that page!

It's December!

Ok it's a new month. Time to start blogging again. I figure if I start fresh every month, it should eventually become a habit. Right? Right.

So the main goal this month is get it done. Don't be too fussy, don't worry about scrapping perfection and the euphoria that comes with it. Just get those pages and memories scrapped. Then in January there should be, no will be, lots of books to be printed!
Anyway here are my things to do for December.

Scrapping Related.. Get it done!

1. December Daily Album/ Journal Your Christmas... a daily page, sometimes based on prompts sometimes just whatever we happen to be doing.
2. Regular CT pages
3. Making ornaments, photo and otherwise
   
4. SSD Daily Cookie Exchange, good incentive to start using templates.
   
5. SA Daily Quick pages, download, plop a photo in, journal it up, page done.
   
6. Daily Download from Weeds and Wildflowers, CatScrap
7. Daily Sales at Shabby Pickle
   
8. and anything else fun that may come up.

Non Scrapping Related.
It's a big list. Too big to worry about today.

And the blog. what about this blog. Well hopefully I'll get a minute everyday to jot down what's happening or what we did or whatever.

OK December, I'm ready! Go forth and be scrappful!

FOBTY Pumpkins!

Another Halloweeny quiz, YAY!

OK here's mine.

What Your Jack-o-Lantern Says

You are a gleeful, exuberant person. You enjoy a good party, and you even enjoy a good brawl. This Halloween, there is no question what you should be... a pirate! The candy you should give out: peanut butter cups

The Jack-o-Lantern Quiz

Ok that's pretty accurate, and yes I do tend to keep all the peanut butter cups for myself! ;)

Time for another FOBTY

at Sweet Shoppe Designs! Hey it's a Halloweeny type quiz, awesome!

Ok let's take it, good questions, seems like it is gathering some valid data. And results are...

Halloween Candy Quiz





You are a Lollypop


Like the Lollypop you are sweet and lickable;)


***************

Ok wait.... that seems a bit pervy. Let's try again.
(oh come on, I'm not the only one who redoes the quizzes, am I?)

Halloween Candy Quiz





You are a Chocolate Bar


Like the chocolate bar you are naughty but oh so good

*****************

Ok that might be a bit closer, but still not quite right. (Note I am not above fudging the results! LOL)

Halloween Candy Quiz





You are a Toffee Apple


Like the toffee apple you are sensible inside but mischievous on the outside


Find out which Halloween Candy you are at Quizopolis.com

There it is, I'm a Toffee Apple. Ok well we call them Caramel Apples and I prefer the Red Candy apples personally, but close enough!

Another From Our Blog to Yours Challenge

Here I am doing another blog challenge, yes I know I should be posting about other stuff.. I'll get to that.... sometime! LOL

For now, this.

Your Ice Cream Personality:

You are a bit of a bragger. Your personality is larger than life - and you really enjoy showing off. You are the type of person who likes to throw caution to the wind. You only live once, so you're going to live as large as possible. You are definitely a wild one! You are a very open minded, liberal, and flexible person. You love many things. You tend to have tastes that range from down home to cosmopolitan. You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time. You are fun loving and sweet. You tend to enjoy joking around and teasing people.

The Ice Cream Personality Test

Ok so who knew Ice Cream could be so accurate?

I'll start with the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD Golden Opulence Sundae $1,000.00 from Serendipity 3 in New York
Here's the basic list of what goes into a Golden Opulence Sundae by Serendipity 3 ....

• Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla covered in 23 carat edible gold leaf.
• the most expensive chocolate in the world (Amedei Porceleana) drizzled over it and is covered with chunks of Chuao chocolate (very rare and made from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela's coast).
• topped with exotic, candied fruits from Paris, truffles, gold dragets and marzipan cherries.
• Top it all off with a small glass bowl of golden colored caviar - Grand Passion Caviar and sweetened and infused with fresh orange, fresh passion fruit and Armagnac.
• The whole Golden Opulence Sundae is topped with a gilded sugar flower and served in a Baccarat Harcourt Crystal goblet (which you get to keep after).
• And bonus, there are even gold spoons (18 carat) available to eat the sundae with.

I'll take 2 to go!

Blog Challenges

Hey look at me, 2 in one day! Well a bonus of having a blog is doing blog challenges. This week's SSD From Our Blog To Yours - 10/2 is about Fast Food. Well we don't do a lot of FF restaurants around here, but one thing we do about once a month is Quiznos! My personal fav... Honey Bourbon Chicken sub. All-white-meat chicken strips, lettuce, tomato, red onion, Honey Bourbon Sauce, Zesty Grille Sauce, spices, on wheat bread. Ok now I'm hungry!
