[Ad- gifted product] We play board games together, every other week, at our local Geek Retreat! This week, we tried out Junior Tension, which is a game all about topics and trying to name the things within that topic. It’s pretty easy for all ages to play and with the Junior version, there are a bunch of topics that are related to younger kids topics, like Thomas the Train Engine and Nursery Rhymes, which makes teams of different ages really important in this game.
It’s been another month, so Amelia and I excitedly went along to another cupcake class with Sweet Designs by Jennie, this time it was a new design; seaside cupcakes, perfect for the beautiful weather we had been having lately. Sweet Designs by Jennie hand-creates these designs based on what has inspired her, and as it’s seaside weather, she thought about the seaside. This class was primarily done with fondant work, and as usual, it’s on the smaller side with 6 people attending at once. We are regulars here, so we know quite a few of the others who attend, and this class had some great vibes!

[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.
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.
