Ho ho hello there my dear readers. We celebrate Christmas in our family and it's only 2 days away. The kiddo has been asking for a gingerbread house all month long and this Monday was his first day home on Christmas break, so we set to it on making the best gingerbread creation we could. I've recently introduced him to the goodness that is Super Mario Bros and as he very accurately noticed, the castles at the end of each level look a lot like gingerbread...and thus began our adventure of creating our very own Super Mario gingerbread castle. Super Mario … [Read more...]
Alice in Wonderland Cocktail – The Cheshire Cat
This weekend is the US movie release of Alice Through the Looking Glass. As any other Alice obsessed person is probably feeling, I'm SUPER excited to see this movie. First off, Johnny Depp is just so good in every role and we get to hear the sultry voice of the amazing and forever remembered Alan Rickman. Aside from the fact that I love all things Alice, I genuinely think this movie looks so cool. As I tend to do, I indulge my excitement with a good cocktail, and in this case, an Alice in Wonderland Cocktail. This fun looking cocktail is so … [Read more...]
Avocado Deviled Eggs Recipe & Daredevil Season 2
Daredevil season 2 hits Netflix this Friday, March 18. I'm seriously so pumped. I thoroughly enjoyed the first season. Although it felt slow at times, they were building up to the most excellent finale.

First, just in case you need it, a (very) quick recap on the season 1 finale and then I'll get to the recipe. It starts with Ben's funeral. … [Read more...]
Mr Freeze Cocktail – Gotham Season 2 Mid-Series Premiere
You guys - Gotham is back tonight! I absolutely love Gotham. Hubs and I decided to watch it on a whim (because even though I'm a Marvel girl, I'll always love Batman) and we fell in love with the show. I know a lot of people have issues with it since there are many things that seem to be different from canon stuff, but to us it's just so good. So tonight is the Season 2 Mid-Series premiere where we will finally get to meet Mr Freeze. I will admit that when I think of Mr Freeze I 100% think of Arnold Schwarzenegger in his role ...and more specifically all of his … [Read more...]
Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows + Treacle Tart Recipe
You guys - I did it. I have completed the seven books in the Harry Potter series and right now I just feel sad that it's over. I tried so hard to read this last one slowly, but really, how can one even take their time with this book. I stayed up until 1:30am the other night because there just wasn't a good place to stop. There was just so much in this book that it's almost hard to coherently phrase any of it. At the beginning, I was completely blown away by Dudley's actions towards Harry. When he told him he didn't think he was a waste of space, I literally put … [Read more...]
