My Memory Suite
Memories mean the world to me, I have over 300 photo's of me and my boyfriend and don't get me started on my family, there are to many photo's to even count. When I was about 5 there was a huge fire and lots of my parents photo's were ruined, I would hate for my photo's to get ruined or damaged. But do not fear, the age of technology has a plan, digital scrap booking. It is so cool and simple. I hate hard things and this was definitely something that was designed for me. There are so many colours and themes and cool pictures. I have so much fun and can do my scrap booking any time anywhere. The themes are amazing, when I finally had time to sit down and enjoy it, I was amazed that something like this existed, I will be posting picture soon, I am just finishing my first album. I seriously love it, I have always loved photo's but hated cutting out pictures and glueing them in a book, now I can scrap book on my laptop.
I will be holding a competition and the winner will receive a free copy of the software. Too enter you need to visit the website and tell me which theme caught your eye and why you would love to own a copy of the software.What do photo's mean to you, why are they so important to you? www.memories.com

sinfully delightful
This weekend was pleasant, but wow did I need some chocolate loving, I however did refrain from having the one addiction I think most women have in common. in fact the last time I taste the sweet sinful dark chocolate,was on Friday, wow feels like forever. But alas since summer is around the corner choosing the slimmest option is what I usually go for. For example, this morning instead of having a delightfully delicious cup of coffee I had black dull rooibos tea and instead of having a decadent chocolate muffin I had a apple and oat muffin. A girl has too do what a girl has to do.
so my latest chocolate addiction if a mcflurry, but late at night is kind of hard to order one when you are at home. So I have come up with something that tastes just as good.

Vanilla ice cream and warm chocolate sauce
Make your own ice cream if you wish, but I don't think this is the time to be precious. Hopefully, none of us will have the time anyway. Serves 2.
4 balls of vanilla ice cream
250g fine plain chocolate
2 tsps strong black coffee (espresso is ideal)
300ml whipping cream
a knob of butter about the size of a walnut
250g fine plain chocolate
2 tsps strong black coffee (espresso is ideal)
300ml whipping cream
a knob of butter about the size of a walnut
Break the chocolate into small pieces so that it melts easily. Put it into a heavy-bottomed saucepan with the coffee and the cream. Heat slowly, stirring from time to time, until the chocolate has melted. It is essential that the heat is kept low.
Once the chocolate is softened, stir until smooth, then stir in the butter and pour into a warm jug. Serve warm with ice cream.
