We had our cute neighbour friends over earlier today for some painting. My idea was to create some frames to hold their artwork in, but in the end, we just did some big paintings on huge cardboard i picked up from the supermarket. I LOVE CARDBOARD!!!! Anyways, the kids were very happy painting and using their imagination.

And then later on we got together to celebrate Nonno's birthday. It was nice to see him after his trip to Italy. He's happy to be back home. Nonna made Nonno's favourite... the Mormom-friendly version of Tiramisu. It was delightful!

Louie and I made chocolate brownies from this American recipe book entitled "Chocolate Sensations". I'm certain that not even Betty Crocker asks for as much butter as this book does. Nevertheless, our brownies turned out pretty good! (Though i must say, one brownie has enough calories to sustain life for a week).

| And here's ours!!! We got a 9.5 for taste (but a mere 3 for presentation) |
We'll see what more chocolate adventures we embark on next! There are still like 200 more chocolate recipes to try in that book!
