Exploring the Austrian National Library

Posted on February 12, 2026February 12, 2026 by Jupiter

Now, when it was explained that one of our outings while in Austria would be to the Austrian National Library, I didn’t really get why would we would be going there. Surely, I’ve seen libraries before! We were then told that this is one of the libraries that Beauty and the Beast was inspired by, I was a little more interested, but still thought it would be like a normal, functioning library. It turns out, the Austrian National Library is more like a museum that is within a library, and it’s absolutely packed with people.

Ding Dong Dim Sum Set Boxes – Perfect for Date Night

Posted on February 11, 2026February 11, 2026 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Dann and I are big food lovers, especially Asian food. Though we are known to go out quite a bit, it’s fun to mix things up and have an at home date night from time to time. Especially as we are both people who work from home, and with kids to feed in the evening, having a little at home date night box full of food for a lunchtime date is sometimes absolutely perfect. That’s exactly what we did with our Ding Dong Dim Sum Set box – we went with the Legends box – which was so much fun!

Dog Man: The Hot Dog Card Game – Quick and Fun

Posted on February 10, 2026February 11, 2026 by Jupiter

[Ad – Gifted Product] When it comes to card games, I really do love card games that are in a tin! The Dog Man: The Hot Dog Card Game is one such game – the tin making it very easy to bring out and about with you. I find card games like this to be perfect for little moments between activities, as the game itself isn’t that long, but it’s an entertaining and fun one where everyone can play together. If you aren’t familiar with Dog Man, the comic book character, this game is still fine to play.

Three Easy Treats for Valentine’s Day

Posted on February 9, 2026February 8, 2026 by Jupiter

I always get the itch to do some extra baking and treat-making around Valentine’s Day. Each year, I do these cookie or treat boxes for our local Pokemon Go community, which is always a lot of fun. Valentine’s Day isn’t as big of a deal as it is in America, but it is still a fun little holiday to enjoy. In some of these recipes, the sprinkles are really doing all of the heavy lifting, so you’ll need to find some Valentine’s Day sprinkles that you very much enjoy both the look of and eating!

Perfect Show for Rachel at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

Posted on February 6, 2026February 10, 2026 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] We’ve gone to improve theatre before, but Perfect Show for Rachel is something that takes aspects of improv, but is so much more than that. Rachel is the director of the show, with a big panel full of buttons. These buttons trigger different scenes or mini-games, that the rest of the actors on the stage then need to act out – until Rachel pushes another one. Each show is unique, depending on Rachel’s mood, but the show isn’t put together to entertain us. It’s put together to entertain Rachel.
