[Ad- gifted product] Every other Monday, we like to play a board game at our local Geek Retreat. This week, we had a copy of Karate Cats and Kung Fu Dogs to play together! Dann, Robin, Amelia and I were excited about this game just by the name; we love cats, we love dogs, and we love the idea of them knowing martial arts.

[Ad- gifted product] Robin is a big fan of reviewing video games, as you probably know if you have seen our other posts. She has not, however, seen Jumanji the movie, so when I asked her if she wanted to take on Jumanji: Wild Adventures, I wasn’t actually sure if she would be interested. We watched the trailer, and she actually got super pumped about the idea of exploring a jungle on an adventure!

[Ad- gifted product] Just recently, we went to an arcade with our children for Dann’s Birthday, where Robin absolutely smashed Street Fighter! It’s a classic, that I feel like every gamer remembers playing! It’s one of those games that have been around for so long and appear in so many different arcades, that it’s almost impossibly you’ve not played. I remember playing Street Fighter with my dad, where I always picked one of the female characters to represent myself. Jada has released a new wave of 6 inch figures along with their 1:24 scale vehicles, that tip-toe the line between collectors item and toy.

Dann and I are a big fan of food and love trying out new places to eat! As an American, American style BBQ is something that brings comfort to me. As it turns out, Two Greedy Pigs has opened – an American BBQ joint that primarily caters to takeaway, providing a menu of BBQ items and classic American favorites. It’s worth noting that the website itself is not very up-to-date with the food that you can get there, so it’s worth checking out the venue and ordering based on the signage, or you might miss some really lovely gems.
Two Greedy Pigs does have some covered seating, but isn’t a sit-down restaurant. You need to order at the window, though if you do eat in, you will be brought out your food and can eat at the tables provided. At this time of the year, due to them being so new, there isn’t heating in this area, so we opted to takeaway our food and eat it in the warmth of either our car or our home, if we could wait that long! The seated area is well decorated and feels like a family BBQ, so I am excited to use it during the summertime. The food when presented to those eating in was very well plated, so do keep that in mind as we got takeaway boxes.

[Ad- gifted product] Squishmallows are really something everyone knows about now – the squishy, large (and sometimes small) stuffed animals that children love to collect. Robin and Amelia both have an extensive collection, which goes all over their beds and hanging from various hangers around. They have favorites when it comes to their names and designs. As there are so many to collect, we were delighted to get the Squishmallows Squad Vibes Sticker Album which allows you to find and place in various sticker packs in specific locations to collect them all.
