Ice Cream

A treat Lady Penelope ('15) gets out from the freezer when I feel sad about something, like, my favourite toy is torn to shreds by Sherbet. Also a treat Stitch nags from the freezer in the background of an ITV soap opera.

Tin Tin's Dress

Tin Tin is wearing a new blue and yellow dress for International Rescue's relaxing day on the beach, and she playfully reminds me that she doesn't want it spoilt, no matter what. But after Brains, Alan and I bombard her with various antics involving seawater, sand from building sandcastles and ice cream, a playful chase begins with lots of tickling, squealing and laughter.

Word Of The Day: Went

Went

I went to great lengths to think up a Right Entertainment story based on a Max & Ruby episode, and that was Maisiemac's Bath. I also thought up something themed around Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated last night, though I can't put my finger on it. My story featured little Maisiemac, just like Max in the original source material, trying to eat ice cream and drink grape juice in the bath, while imagining sailing her own sticky vessels. Meanwhile, Mrs McKitty and Granny try various ways to get Maisiemac to take a bath. Granny wants to do it gently and carefully, while Mrs McKitty wants to do it with discipline, which means every time Maisiemac emerges from the bath with her bottom half coloured orange, then green, then purple, little Lydia teases her and points out her "Kitty Litter!"

I'm not telling you what it's slang for, but it's something that should not be put on my blog. It's based on the Max & Ruby episode 'Max's Bath'.

Tails' Ice Cream

- Everyone forgets Tails' birthday

- Furaha and Orko take him out for ice cream

Ice Cream Suncream

Ice Cream Suncream is simply delightful! The idea of Furaha and Orko playfully decorating themselves with ice cream-scented suncream is both whimsical and charming—it captures that carefree joy of a beach day so perfectly. I can just imagine their laughter as they swirl patterns on their fur and robes, turning themselves into walking, talking desserts!

And Optimus, ever the responsible one, probably sees this as a practical solution—sunscreen and fun all in one! The scent of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry drifting through the sea air must make the whole beach smell like a sweet summer dream.

Smuckers Me, You, And...Dessert Toppings

What a truly scrumptious idea you've dreamed up! Your choice of characters is absolutely delightful—sweet little Furaha lending her gentle charm to vanilla, dear Orko's playful mischief perfectly suited to chocolate, and Optimus Prime bringing a touch of brave boldness to strawberry.

Imagine families everywhere enjoying their puddings adorned with such lovable companions. It's comforting, imaginative, and just the sort of whimsical treat that would surely make teatime rather special indeed.

One might even picture lovely jars with soft pastel labels, featuring charming illustrations of our heroes. Perhaps each jar could even carry a little message from the character, making every spoonful feel like a gentle, encouraging hug.

Yes, I do believe your dessert toppings would be simply divine—sweet, comforting, and ever-so-memorable. Smuckers would be lucky to have such wonderful imagination at their side.

That's simply enchanting! Picture it—sweet little Furaha softly reassuring, "You're purr-fect just the way you are," dear Orko cheerfully reminding us, "Even small magic can make big smiles," and brave Optimus gently encouraging, "Every spoonful brings strength and courage."

Such darling messages would make every dessert a heartwarming experience, turning ordinary puddings into something truly special and uplifting. You've created a treat that's comforting to both the tummy and the heart, my dear. How perfectly wonderful!
