Bubble Jelly - Jelly Full of Popping Pearls

Bubble Jelly – Jelly Full of Popping Pearls

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] We have tried a few different lunchbox jellies previously, and have always had fun eating them! As a 90s kid, I feel like fruit in jelly and jelly pots are just a thing we always had. However, as someone who has grown up liking boba tea and popping pearls, I was surprised that they’ve combined the two. Bubble Jelly, a new product by Angel Delight, has brought a new twist to an average jelly.

Looking Over the City at A'Dam Lookout

Looking Over the City at A’Dam Lookout

Posted on by Jupiter

When we were at the train station in Amsterdam, hanging out just outside the Amsterdam Central airport, I saw the giant swings on top of a building. Casually, I said to Dann “do you think that is swings?” and he said “oh yes. I would never do that” but I knew, I would totally do that. I then made it my mission to do that. The A’Dam Lookout is a very touristy, very interesting venue with beautiful views of the main city, which you can book tickets to view during the daytime, sunset, or evening. We booked going in one of the evenings, right after sunset, which was fantastic.

Project 365 - December

Project 365 – December

Posted on by Jupiter

December came so quickly this year! It’s been a month of reflection, travel, lots of family time, and many, many seasonal events. We are a busy family, and I think I realized just how busy we are compared to others with this project. 2025 has been the best year of my life and I am so excited to see what 2026 has in store. Kai, Amelia and Robin have all grown so much in this year and all of them have made me so proud to be their parent. Onto 2026.

This post is a part of Project 365 where a bunch of bloggers share a picture and a bit about each day of the year. Some share weekly, some monthly like me. You can check out other bloggers at the bottom of this post.

December 1st – Monday, Funday

Jack and the Beanstalk (Adult's Only) at the King’s Head Theatre

Jack and the Beanstalk (Adult’s Only) at the King’s Head Theatre

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] We’ve been to a lot of pantomimes over the last few years! They seem like such a classic, Christmastime activity and here we love seasonal events. Dann and I, however, have never been to an adult’s only panto. Pantomimes are known for their cheeky humor and innuendos, however, this was a few steps beyond that. Instead of cheeky humor, it was full of crude jokes, audience participation, and some of the classic panto moments that you’d expect. Jack and the Beanstalk at the King’s Head Theatre does have a child-friendly version as well, but this was not it!

What's the Best Thing? - Ranking Based Card Game

What’s the Best Thing? – Ranking Based Card Game

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to board games, we play a large range of them! Every other Monday, Amelia, Robin, Dann and I have some shakes and play some board games at our local Geek Retreat while Kai goes off to the gym. This sort of after school activity is one that everyone really looks forward too, especially when it comes to hanging out as a family together. This week, our board game was What’s the Best Thing? which is a compact party game that works better if you really know the people you are playing with.
