Happy Thursday Everyone!  I asked for your help this week in sending me recipes that you enjoy making for the Fall months or for Halloween treats and you all did not disappoint!  I have received some very yummy sounding recipes and can’t wait to try some of them for myself.  I thought since I received so many wonderful recipes that instead of trying to fit them all in this one blog I would start a forum thread and put them all there that way you can all try them and then come back to the forums and let us all know how you enjoyed them!  So you can find all the recipes that were turned in to me this week at this forum link:

http://amarettobreedables.com/forums/topic/2854/halloween-amp-autumn-recipes/view/post_id/9205

Before you run off to try out the new recipes I want to take a minute to remind you that Avalon is having another episode of Answers with Ava on Thursday October 18th at 3pm slt.  I hope to see many of you attend the show as it should be very informative!

Be sure to keep up on all the Amaretto events by regularly checking the Amaretto events calendar at this link:

Until next time … Happy Breeding everyone!

Hello everyone! Hope you are all enjoying a lazy Sunday with your friends and family in SL and RL. I know I have enjoyed mine with my breeding family and best friend!
Today I wanted to let all of you guys know about some changes that we have made to the Amaretto Ranch University sim!

Nothing about the classes has changed they will still be given at 9 and at 5, there is now only one classroom so there will be no more confusion if you are in the correct classroom or not.

You will also notice the new courtyard, this is a great place to check the calendars or just a nice relaxing place to hang out.

The museums have not moved and are always open for you guys to explore, and I do hope you take advantage of them.

Why should you visit the ARU sim or attend a class?
Because there is a wealth of information in the classes even the breeder who has been breeding for years!

Remember that we did announce that we will have another graduation on Nov 13! So get into those classes they don’t take long and you might learn a little something!

If you have any questions about graduation or classes at the ARU please contact Avalon Crystal.

I have included a pic of the new courtyard at the Amaretto Ranch University sim.

 ARU

So take a moment to head over to ARU and look around!

I do hope that you will take the 15 mins to attend a class and learn a little something! I look forward to seeing you in my next class. Happy Breeding everyone!

Happy Friday Everyone! Hope everyone is having a good breeding day!

Today I would like to talk to you about the Amaretto Halloween Breedables Costume Contest Dakota and I are having on Wednesday October 16, at 11:00 am at Boomtown.

To enter just send your entries on a notecard to Dakota Delicioso or Karrie Woyseck. The notecard should have your SL name and what type of breedable will be in the contest. Please send in your notecard no later than October 15!

Costume Contest

Happy Thursday everyone! I hope everyone is having a great week and enjoying all the new exciting things coming from the 4.0 update! The new bundle updater coming out this week was pretty EPIC so I hope you all picked one up at the Amaretto stores.

The fall season is upon us here in the states and with Halloween right around the corner the new Show horse this month has caused quite a stir in the Amaretto group! Everyone loves the Spooky Web eye and I can’t wait to see it on some of those nice winged vamps out there. I have included a picture of the new Showhorse Falabella and the eye below so you can see what all the fuss is about.

 

We were discussing the Showhorse Falabella in the group this morning when a group of us thought it would be so much fun to have a Halloween Recipes blog! So I want you all to send me in your best most yummy recipes that would be fitting for Halloween treats or just a dish that makes you think of Fall/Autumn. Put your best recipe on a notecard and send them to Dakota Delicioso in world with your name and what region of the world you’re in and I will be back next Thursday with what could be the scariest yet most delicious blog ever!
Until then … Happy Breeding everyone!
