Runs on Coffee and Cream

I'm now officially obsessed with Forget-Me-Nots. I even bought some seeds to plant in our yard after seeing these all over their property.





The water level was really high and there was very little beach. Normally these stairs lead to a sandy beach, and not right into the lake.



This weekend was just the start of spending lots of time outdoors this Summer. We have so many day trips planned and lakes to hang out at over the next couple of months.

Today is the 20th anniversary of Pokémon! How crazy is it that Pokémon has been around for 20 years and it's still going strong with awesome games and toys!?

I was a child of Pokémon. I grew up with it. I had two younger brothers who became obsessed with the card game and the Pokémon handheld games. As for myself, I loved the television show, anything to do with Squirtle, and the console games - Pokémon Snap, Stadium, and Puzzle League. To this day I will pull out Pokémon Snap from time to time to beat it in one sitting and I have a hard time beating Adam in any rounds of Pokémon Puzzle League.


To celebrate Pokémon Day, I made Pokémon starter cupcakes - water, fire, and grass.


The water ones are my favourite, which isn't just because of my love for Squirtle. I love how the little waves turned out!



These are some of our newest perler bead creations too - Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur. They're the perfect accessory for my cupcake photos.

How are you celebrating Pokémon Day?
