Best Easter Weekend- Part 1

This year was the best Easter weekend ever... just ask Melanie. On Friday, Melanie and I got up early to go see a cheap matinee of Mirror Mirror. Really a great movie! Girl Power all the way! We even came up with new Spice Girl Names for ourselves, you know, since Girl Power was started by the Spice Girls. I am Glimmer Spice and Melanie is Dreamy Spice- because she has big dreams of Stardom.

So we went home and made some delicious twist on some Chocolate Peanut Butter, a healthy alternative recipe made with Fibre 1 Cereal, here's the link: http://simmerandglimmer.blogspot.ca/2012/02/delicious-and-nutritious-fibre-one.html

This time we made them with a little Easter twist... we added little chocolate eggs on them!

Here's my little Chef mixing away.

So simple, melt dark chocolate and peanut butter in the microwave, add to Fibre 1 cereal and mix it all around.  
This time we made large mounds because they were becoming birds nest. I was looking for some chocolate/candy coated almonds- for more nutritional value but couldn't find them, so I used the little Cadbury eggs. 
Here you see them all ready to get placed in the freezer. These taste better right from the freezer to me.

Here's a final closeup, they are sooooo good and with the little eggs it makes them about 100 a treat. Not bad at all!

After our hard day of movies, baking and lunch we decided to go to our favourite park- Lakeside Park. We walked along the lake. 

It was so bright and sunny, we had to wear baseball hats... P.S. I have to get a 'cool' hat. Next on my list for sure.

What a view!

This time we walked into the leash-free dog park and Melanie and I had a blast petting nice doggies! It gave her a 'fix' for doggie love.

We really didn't want to go back in the house when we got back at the end of the day, it was way too nice out. So we peeled off a few layers and Melanie got her bubbles out. Look at the little cats enjoying the bubbles from inside the house. They were mesmarized, at one point, all 3 cats were following the bubbles.

Do you know how hard it is to capture bubbles being blown??? Well, here is a good one for you!

... and another. Good Friday really was Good!
