Beautiful Crystal Suncatchers from Xander Kostroma

Posted on May 29, 2025June 12, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] We love a little bit of unique color in our home! Suncatchers are a real favorite, as our home has a lot of big windows, that feel perfect for catching the sun. We do have a bunch of plants in our dining area’s windows, along with a single large suncatcher handmade by a friend of mine, as well as suncatchers that stick to the glass of your windows on the windows to the front of our house. These suncatchers bring little rainbows into our home and joy to us, as we see them. Xander Kostroma has some stunning, real-crystal based suncatchers that caught our eyes!

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!

Making memories with Journeys Made

Posted on May 21, 2025May 29, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Dann and I travel a lot. There is something about exploring new places, enjoying new food, and just doing new things that always has captivated me. I want to do everything and experience everywhere, which is why we often plan trips and take advantage of the extra day we have set up around a work event. Often we travel so much that we lose track of where we have been and what we’ve done, which is part of the reason why I write about so many of our experiences. We do have a giant scratch off map, where we scratch off the places we’ve been together, but having something smaller that we can carry around is such an inviting idea. That’s where Joruneys Made came in.

Lunch out at Belle Vie Cafe

Posted on May 20, 2025May 29, 2025 by Jupiter

Dann and I wanted to go out to lunch, so we decided to check out Belle Vie Cafe, which is right by the local train station! Belle Vie Cafe has a breakfast menu with tons of options, as well as sandwiches, burgers, a small kids menu and a handful of things under the ‘mains’ section as well. Dann and I were looking for a smaller lunch, so Dann went for a breakfast, I went for a mains, and we got some drinks and mozzarella sticks as well.
