The holidays are upon us, they really did sneak up this year! I know a lot of you may be wondering what Amaretto will do this Christmas, so I thought I would tell you guys about the Magic of Christmas Breedable Expo!

This is our 3rd participating in the Christmas Expo that is put on to benefit Relay for Life!
As always we are amazed the Amaretto Community and their support to fund raise with organizations that we partner up with for charity!

The Expo begins today! The Magic of Christmas Breedable Expo will run from Dec 1st- 15th! We have set up a awesome display so be sure to go check it out!

ChristmasExpo

Here is a direct teleport to our location!
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Christmas%20Breedables%201/91/162/23

While you are there pick up your Amaretto Ranch Breedables “12 Days of Christmas Fireplace” There are two vendors at our location remember all proceeds go to Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society!

So what makes the fireplace special? Well I am glad you asked!

“Twelve Days of Christmas” Amaretto style!

Here is how it works:

1. Purchase an “Amaretto Twelve Days of Christmas Fireplace” from the Magic of Christmas Expo for RFL (all proceeds go to the American Cancer Society)

2. Take it home and unpack it. Rez the fireplace out and wait for it to register (text will read “please wait while Fireplace is registered”) Once it is registered to you it will not register again. You can leave it out to enjoy or store it in your inventory.

3. Starting on the 14th day of December at approximately 10 am slt for 12 days (which includes Christmas Day) you will receive a gift from Amaretto with a special message just for purchasing and registering your fireplace. On Christmas Day at 10 am slt, not only will everyone who has registered their fireplace receive a gift but also six lucky winners will receive a special OOAK horse! Thats right each one is different and there are only six! (You can purchase multiple fireplaces but each one will have to be rezzed out and registered in order to be receive each gift, see #2)

4. You can purchase these lovely fireplaces as a gift but “YOU MUST TRANSFER IT TO THEM AND THEY MUST REZ IT OUT AND REGISTER IT” because once it is rezed and registered it will stay registered to that person forever.

Remember that this is transferable so if you are giving it to a friend or loved one DO NOT rez it out or it will register in your name!!
Happy Holidays Everyone!! This is Ava over and out!!

Why I Am Thankful…

Hi everyone and Happy Saturday! Today I wanted to talk to you all about something that I am thankful for. I am extremely thankful for Amaretto. I don’t even know where to start….

Let me first start by telling you about myself and how I came to be involved with Amaretto Ranch Breedables. Well… I am a single mommy of 4 amazing kids ranging for 17-6 years old. Before Amaretto I was a LVN (licensed vocational nurse). I was injured at work and that basically took away my nursing career as I knew it. While at home recovering I was watching an episode of CSI and I saw this interesting virtual world called Second Life. I was super curious about this “world” I saw on the show so I turned my computer on and logged on to the Second Life website, downloaded the viewer, and was instantly hooked. LOL!

Now if you didn’t already know, Josie is my real life sister. She and I are super close. And well, let’s say, she began to worry when we hadn’t talked in a few days (might have been more lol). So she calls me and asked where the heck I had been. LOL! I then start rambling on about this virtual world I found. I was explaining it to her, telling her about all the clothes, and hair, and shoes, and dance clubs. I was so amazed by it! I then convinced her to make an avatar and log in to Second Life. Well… let’s just say it was downhill, or shall I say uphill from there! Hahaha!

After several months of exploring the grid, going to all the clubs, shopping every store we could find, and spending countless hours working on our houses and land, we discovered vampires! For a while we were a very tight knit and well known Vampire clan here in SL. Josie had met Jaysin shortly she started playing SL, they fell happily in love, and they were the clan King and Queen. This was super fun and exciting but we wanted more! And then….. we found… breedables….

We started with a few Sion eggs, but that quickly snowballed in to “let’s take down the house so we have more prims” or “Let’s take down some trees and stuff to make and area for breeding” LOL! We then tried several other breedables and Josie made a very wise investment and purchased the one and only Nest Egg Market! And after all that, it still didn’t quench Josie and Jaysin’s thirst for wanting more… so then came the idea of trying to create a breedable of their own. They had several ideas and eventually stuck with the idea of breedable horses!

After months of long hours and stressful days, the horses were ready for release!! On September 1 2010, Amaretto changed the face of breedables in Secondlife! Since then, I cannot even begin to explain how much Amaretto, Josie, Jaysin, and all of the staff have changed my life! Josie and Jaysin are definitely two of the kindest and caring people on this planet! They have helped me and my family so much. They have helped me and been there for me on some of the darkest days.

Today I would like to say a thank you to each and every one of my Amaretto family members! I love you all! Well now that I am all teary eyed I will wish you much love and happiness this holiday season!

Happy Holidays and Happy Breeding to each and every one of you!

Until next time….

But wait… I would like to add something…

Josie, you have helped me in so many ways. I cannot put in to words how thankful I am for having a sister like you. Many people have sisters, but only some are lucky enough to call them friends also. I am glad I am one of those few. You are strong, kind, caring, and generous. Those are only a few of your qualities that make you amazing! I love you very much Josie.

Remembering

Happy Friday Everyone! Well Thanksgiving is getting close I would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Today I sit remembering something that happened 50 years ago on this very day.

Some of you may remember some of you might not have even been born yet. I remember when it happened, it was one of those life changing events you never forget (now don’t you all go guessing my age) LOL!

On November 22, 1963 50 years ago our President John F. Kennedy was shot. I remember hearing it in our grammar school classroom over the loud speaker. We were all in shock, everyone was crying and then we were dismissed from school. Well it was all over the TV and me being the curious one I sat very still and watched all that was happening. I don’t think I truly understood the impact that one moment in time would have on the world.
So please be thankful for what all you have and that is life, no matter what comes your way just be thankful.

So in the spirit of being thankful please remember to go to the Toys for Tots Expo and enter the raffle for a “ONE of a Kind” OOAK horse, all proceeds go to the Toys for Tots

Until next week Happy Breeding!!!

As Thanksgiving approaches here at Amaretto we wanted to take some time to thank all of you, our wonderful community, for all that you bring to us. We do all we do for you for with out you there would be no Amaretto. So as the Holiday season comes into full swing we would like to start it off on Thanksgiving day with our own special gifts. Starting at midnight November 28th 2013 for 24 hours there will be some pretty cool random drops from all of our beloved breedables. Horses, K-9s and Birds oh my!! So get ready for next week starts the giving!

Thanksgiving is here, so our minds have turned
To what time has taught us, to what we’ve learned:
We often focus all our thought
On shiny things we’ve shopped and bought.
We take our pleasure in material things,
Forgetting the pleasure that friendship brings.
If a lot of our stuff just vanished today,
We’d see the foundation of each happy day
Is special relationships, constant and true,
And that’s when our thoughts go directly to you.
We wish you a Thanksgiving you’ll never forget,
Full of love and joy—your best one yet!

Happy Breeding to all!!
P.S. Thought we would do something we usually don’t and give y’all a heads up 🙂

Happy Friday Everyone! Hope you all have had a good breeding week!
Today I would like to tell you about the new Nulls that came out with the 2013 Halloween Limited Editions and Special Edition!

A Null trait is an “invisible trait” or a placeholder. These placeholders were implemented as a way to allow the breeder to have a maximum traited breedable, but still look the way they want it to look.

The following Nulls were reveled in the offspring of the Halloween Limited Edition Horses:

Leg Null – Holds the place of socks and hoofs
Wing Null – Holds the place of WIngs
Ear Size Null – Holds the place of Lanky or Scanty
Ear Style Null- Holds the place of Droop, Half Droop Left, and Half Droop Right
Racing null – Holds the place of racing Stamina
Racing null – Holds the place of racing Speed

 

Amaretto has added null traits to the K-9 ‘s, these also came from the Halloween Special Edition K-9s.
These nulls are:

Ear Size Null – Holds the place of Small or Large Ears
Size Null – Holds the place of Runt or Pick
Nose Null – Holds the place of Black Spotted Nose, Pale Nose, Liver Spotted Nose, and Liver Nose
Tail Null – Holds the place of Long or Short tail
Polish Null – Holds the place of Paw Polish
Radiance Null – Holds the place of High or Low Radiance
Sheen Null – Holds the place of High or Low Sheen
Tint Null – Holds the place of Periwinkle, Lilac, Mint, Rose, Sunset, and Sunrise
So keep your eye out for all of these nulls showing up around the grid!
Remember the null traits are just like any other traits and pass the same way.

Happy Breeding!

Happy Thursday Everyone! It’s hard to believe we are already a week into November and this year is nearly gone. Each month we have been doing a new Awareness eye and this month’s eye is the Diabetes Awareness eye. The Diabetes Awareness eye is a random drop for the month of November and it can come from breeding any two horses. This eye does have the ability to pass so be sure to add it to your collection of all the Awareness eyes!

DiabetesAwareness

Also a reminder that the Answers with Ava show is taking place tomorrow November 8, 2013 at Boomtown at 3pm slt. She always has some great guests lined up so be sure to mark your calendars and we look forward to seeing you out at the show on Friday!
Until next time, Happy Breeding!
