Ever since Robin and I went on the Grinchmas Tour Bus last year, Amelia has been asking after going on one as well. The time finally came, the stars aligned with Robin and Amelia having the same day off of school while Kai was back at school, making it the perfect time to go on a tour of London with some snacks. We booked up an Afternoon Tea on Brigit’s Bakery Bus Tour, which is a tour of London along with some classic afternoon tea food.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Gnocchi, Sloppy Joes, Sushi Bowls and more.

Posted on January 21, 2025January 21, 2025 by Jupiter

I sometimes get into a rut, repeatedly cooking the same dinners. We do have a lot of family favorites, but it’s always fun to try something new! Dann and I have discovered a few brands of gnocchi that we quite enjoy, so we’ve been introducing that into our meals. Along with gnocchi, we wanted to create some meals that allowed our children to top the bowls themselves, introducing new ingredients that they likely haven’t tired before, but making it their choice. So, we have some fun meals that have a lot of customizations!

Painting Pottery at The Little Arts Workshop

Most years, for Amelia’s birthday, she asks to go to a pottery place. She quite enjoys painting pottery that gets glazed and fired in a kelm, calling them “proper pottery”. So, when her birthday came around this year, we weren’t surprised that she wanted to go to a new pottery place! Recommended by a friend, we headed over to The Little Arts Workshop, which wasn’t very far from us at all.

Under the Sea Cupcake Class with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Posted on January 17, 2025January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

The Under the Sea Cupcake Class hosted by Sweet Designs by Jennie is a theme that she has quite often, as it’s a very fun class and not very specific to any sort of holiday. We’ve done a lot of holiday-related classes in the past, so it was nice to try out a class that feels general! Our goal is to end up going to them all. Under the Sea Cupcake Class is a fondant class which requires very little piping but had some new tools to work with.

Group Dinner at Casa Rufo

Posted on January 16, 2025February 5, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] I spent some time in Bilbao, Spain – where I was recommended a few places to eat, including Casa Rufo. Casa Rufo is sort of like a deli when you walk in; there are cans of different fancy ingredients and a deli display, which had a bunch if items that would go great in some sort of hamper. The inside had tons of wine racks, with lots of bottles of wine sticking out. It feels rustic and quite like a hidden gem, where you would find a bunch of small plates and fantastic wine. Thankfully, one of the members of staff did speak English, so it was very easy to order as well.
