Eating Italian Food at Sophia Loren Restaurant

Posted on May 28, 2025June 9, 2025 by Jupiter

Is it smart to get Italian food right near the Doumo in Milan? Probably not. It’s most likely going to be more expensive than anywhere else, and it might not even taste that good. With that in mind, we did really want to have a more traditional lunch and didn’t want to spend a lot of time walking, so we went to Sophia Loren Restaurant. Sophia Loren is a film star, something I didn’t realize until we were seated and I read the menu, which has a bunch of text about how she wanted to open an Italian restaurant because she loves food. But, it’s really the taste of the food that matters.

Trying out Toast’ems Pop-Ups

Posted on May 27, 2025June 9, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] I have always heard about those toaster pastries, but it turns out, they aren’t the originals! Toast’ems Pop-ups, previously called Post Country Squares, were made in 1963, before Kellogg’s version of the pastry came out later that year. It’s interesting to see what brands become household names!

Exploring Brick Festival in Harlow

There has been a boom of stuff to do in our local town, and as people who enjoy participating in local activities, we have been on the hunt! When Brick Festival came to town, we weren’t really sure what to expect. We ended up booking tickets, including the one that gave you a little toy just to see what it is. Brick Festival is touring all over the United Kingdom, so there might be one local to you if you check out their website.

Lego Festival at Legoland Windsor

Posted on May 23, 2025May 19, 2025 by Jupiter

We have gone to a number of time-limited events at Legoland Windsor; their Brick or Treat event, Firework Spectacular, Christmas event, and even their newly opened mini-golf. So, when Dann heard about the Lego Festival happening, as a sort of spring fest, he figured it would be a good time to visit! We have a bunch of favorite rides we enjoy going on, and found that having these new activities to sprinkle throughout the day rounded things out. Once we entered, we went up to the large main stage and grabbed our lanyards, which had a bunch of little pages on them, to tell you about various Lego-related experiences like Fortnight and even their golf course.

Exploring the Pier 39 Tulipmania

Posted on May 22, 2025May 27, 2025 by Jupiter

When we visit San Francisco, we always take the time to walk along Pier 39. Last year, when we went, there was a horrific storm happening so the pier itself wasn’t full of lovely weather and the Tulipmania festival had taken a bit of a hit, not being so ideal for us to walk around. This year, however, we have had such better luck! Pier 39 is already an iconic, free, fun day out, but with Tulipmania going on, there is just more to explore and take pictures of!
