AJC 2011 Itinerary 23 -PAINT! or Sophie HELPS OUT!

Precariously balanced on a can of yellow paint, our intrepid Camel Artiste, thinks that ‘just a touch more yellow’ would make my Rhododedrans look much better.
Poor long suffering Kevin the Kiwi did try to tell her that it was ‘not such a good idea’ but in the excitement of helping out (before I got back), his sage advice was ignored.

Note to self: remember to lock the Studio door when I go away!

AJC 2011 Itinerary 22 - ROAD TEST or BRAKE! SOPHIE! BRAKE!

When Sophie heard about our plans for traveling to Italy, she decided that she could at least handle a Vespa and zoom around with us, rather than having to walk everywhere.
Best of all: you can’t pack much luggage on a Vespa!
(There was No Way she was going to be a Pack Animal on that trip)
.
Sophie had been taking Secret Driving Lessons from her friend Kevin the Kiwi who works as a Driving and Road Tester for the Department of Motor Vehicles.
(He originally wanted to be a Flight Instructor, but being a small flightless bird *, that was ruled out much to his disappointment).
So other than a few minor mishaps such as getting tangled in a BLACKBERRY BUSH and confusing the ACCELERATOR with the BRAKE, Sophie got her LEARNERS and proudly Vroomed Vroomed home to show me.
(Good thing the Garage Door was OPEN at the time as I still could hear Kevin yelling: BRAKE! SOPHIE, BRAAKKKKKE!)
**the following is based on a True Story of me teaching a friend to drive again after 7 years absence behind the wheel – names changed of course to protect the guilty**

AJC 2011 Itinerary 21 - Simply Started: Well! Isn't that the...

I suppose it doesn’t help matters when a Certain Curious Cowichan Camel named Sophie constantly opened the oven door,
‘just to check on things’..
oh.oh.
We now know, that opening oven doors on a Rising Chocolate Souffle cake is NOT a Good Thing To Do!
And of course, she would pick the day to do it when I had invited the Bridge Club over for a game.
Sophie by way of apology, rescued the situation by finding the recipe for FALLEN Chocolate Souffle cake.
We called it that, sliced it up, and the Bridge Club never knew. (shhh don’t tell)

AJC 2011 Itinerary 20 - Understand & Whatever Happens

Or..Sophie's Cinnamon Roll Philosophy: (Life with a twist..smile)

For something different, I combined the Simply Started: “Whatever Happens” with the Verb: “Understand”.
Sophie filled in the rest.
