Farmville

I have a confession to make...I am addited to farmville on facebook! I love this game. For the people reading this who doesn't know what farmville is I will explain it to you. Farmville is a game that lets you create your own farm. Growing up my father always had a garden and farm animals on his three acre home. Unfourtantly the home I am living in now is a trailer, in a park with a lot thats tiny tiny. We are allowed to have one pet, my puppy star and we are not allowed to plant any gardens. So farmville on the computer is like my fantasy farm. I can create a huge garden with any kind of crops that I have earned through a level achivement. The crops grow and then I get to harvest them to sell at market for money or share with my neighbors who helped fertilize my crops. I have cows, bulls, horses, donkeys and chicken on my farm just to name a few. I have lots of fruit trees that I can harvest, like peaches and apples. My farm is beatiful and I love to arrange a capture that true farm like feel of this game. My boyfriend on the other hand thinks my playing on this game is a little excessive. He is constantly yelling at me to GET OFF THE COMPUTOR. Lately we have agreed not to spend so much time on electronics because I am not the only one who likes to play games. He also like to play on his PS3 modern warfare. We have been spending more time with each other then playing are games and you realize how society is so connected to electronics. I know I can still play on my farm just not as much time should be spent doing this :)

Moonlight Cafe'

I work at a little Italian restaurant in the heart of Dover township. Your first impression of the place, if you don't pass it while driving is "Wow thats a tiny restaurant". The building is fairly small. We have about forty seats and about twelve tables but do not let the size fool you. For within the four walls of the establishment you will find the best homemade Itailian food you will find in York County! As with any Italian food to fully enjoy the flavors you will need a good bottle of wine. The restaurant does not carry a liquor permit but the customer is more than welcomed to Bring Your Own Bottle. The atmosphere in this restaurant make you feel like you are truly in Italy. Italian music flows all around you and aroma of garlic and white wine tickles your nose. The chef born and raised in Sicily has his cooking station right in the restaurant. The chef entertains the custormers with flames soaring from his sautee' pans and quickness in preparing thier piping hot, mouth watering pasta dinners. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menue' which ranges from you classic spagetti and meatball to a more creative dish chilean sea bass. The dinners have quailty ingrediants but are fairly priced, for example.

Appetizer: Crab Dip $9.00
Entree': Veal Parmigiana $16.00
Dessert: Homemade Tiramisu' $5.00
Drink: Caramel Latte' $3.45

The next time you eat out instead of going to the Olive Garden I recommend taking a trip Dover. The Moonlight Cafe' is a secret gem of a restaurant that will surely become one of your favorite places to eat!
