Today's Theme (this section will be updated daily)

Monday April 6 - Comfort Food - Get inspired by food! Maybe it's a recipe you are learning or have mastered, your favorite dish from your childhood or now, restaurant or take-out food you have enjoyed, seasonal/holiday treats, home baked goodies, a craving you have at this moment, or even what's on the menu for tonight!

Tuesday April 7 - Furry/Feathered/Leathered Friends - Let's celebrate the animals - tame or wild - who have made our lives just that much more interesting! Some ideas - pets (past or present), animals from an adventure, outing, farm, conservation area, park or zoo, animals you photograph as a hobby, a stuffed animal that brings you comfort!

Wednesday April 8 - Adventure - Show off any adventure that you enjoyed this past year - a visit to a local event or attraction, a day trip to the beach, a visit to a small town or big city (near or far), a globetrotting adventure, a road trip!

Thursday April 9 - Binge This - What are you watching (TV, Youtube, Netflix, dvd, webcam etc.) and/or what are you reading and/or what are you doing a whole lot of recently to help keep yourself busy and/or entertained!

Friday April 10 - Wise Words - Scrap words that have inspired or comforted you now or in the past - a quote from a novel, movie or person (famous, fictional or someone you know), a poem, a passage from a book or story, a saying.

My layout for Monday's "Comfort Food" Challenge. :)

This is a recipe for baked bread that I first tried out sometime this past January. I've spent months adjusting the baking times to get it to work with my temperamental stove lol. We've always enjoyed picking up fresh baguettes from a local bakery, but since it is not possible now this little loaf has become a comfort food in my house.

Ughhh, I'm in such a bad mood, had no plans to scrap this week (or two)! But, Joanne, you knows how much I love your Challenges, so I have to do it. I'm coming with text and photo that are actually from our Daily Oooo's Chatter, but I think it's turned great with your kit.


Hehe, and this is the second recipe by Jean scraped today. LOL

I had been meaning to take a photo like this forever, and well, there was no time like all the time I now have in the present! This is our sweet kitty who is so thrilled to have all of us home. She's also a very active homeschool classmate lol! I had a little fun with her photos and my kids thought it was hilarious!

Yay, another fun challenge from Joanne. Thanks for hosting and for the freebie.

I'll admit it: I AM a cookie monster. They're my main comfort food. Give me a bunch of cookies, a bag of chips and a good Netflix series—and I'm in heaven.

The most obvious decision would be to scrap a cat page, but I chose other direction :) . I wanted to continue my yesterday idea about the diary and the Daily Oooo's Chatter.

So my entry for today is this diary page:


And I actually cheat a little bit, as I made double page, but the other side is for the monthly challenge. Hope it's OK!

Here is how the whole project looks like.

I have gone with the expected and done a bird page. The birds visiting our yard are always a pleasure, but these days even more so.

My layout for day #3 - Adventure

This is a photo from a short trip we took to Madeira in early January. It's the first one I've scrapped from this trip, a little bitter-sweet, but I'm very grateful for that day even more so now.
