Funky Foods Cupcake Class with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Every month Amelia and I go to Sweet Designs by Jennie‘s cupcake class, often going to one of the newer designs! Jennie creates new designs monthly, with so many different ones to choose from. Amelia and I always have a fantastic time creating cupcakes, chatting with others, and learning new decorating techniques. As always, we showed up for our class and all of the cakes were already baked. Our fondant was set out, along with tons of tools, and we got right to it!

B.box Superman Range has been released

[Ad – Gifted Products] B.box is a brand all about making feeding your little ones easier. From toddler stage with things like bibs and drinks bottles to teenagers with larger lunchboxes and massive water bottles, there is something for literally everyone. We have previously very much enjoyed their medium sized lunchboxes, snack boxes, and their insulated water bottles that really do keep things colder for longer. Everything from B.box is designed with parents in mind – and it’s all dishwasher safe and can pull a part. Recently, B.box has launched a Superman range, with some retro-inspired Superman designs.

The Best Food April Fools Prank

April fools day isn’t a real holiday by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s a really fun day – especially for foodies like me. We’ve done April fools day pranks for as long as I can remember, often messing around with the food that we eat, as that’s always a fun prank. In my family, it was always important to my dad that these types of pranks be funny and not mean or picking on each other, so I find that food-related ones are always the best. Many of the ones on this list are ones that our children have spoken about year on year, wondering what will happen next. We do not very often repeat these pranks, so have had to get more creative as time has gone on.

Eating Cake and Cocktails at Hotel Sacher

There are lots of different places in Vienna, Austria to eat cakes! One of the more fancy locations is Hotel Sacher, which has one of those famous chocolate cakes. Outside the cafe part of the hotel, there is always a long queue of people waiting to get in to eat. We didn’t have to wait too long in the queue, due to the time of day that we went, which was a plus! Even with a long wait, if you are a fan of cakes, it’s well worth it. They give you a big menu that has a bit of history in it and the seating inside is very full but beautiful. It’s a lovely place for desserts! We shared a bunch of cakes so we all could try everything, which was a fantastic idea.

Zzzopla Thunder Ball – Bounce, Spin and Play

Previously, Robin has reviewed the Zzopla Mini Ball, which is a smaller version of this toy, however she also got her hands on this red Zzzopla Thunder Ball (thunder being the design) which is full sized! It’s quite a bit larger and heavier than the mini, creating something that doesn’t quite adapt itself as well to being a fidget, but does have some very fun uses.
