You’ve Got Meal

Posted on May 21, 2020June 1, 2020 by ourvirtualholiday

You can’t please everyone or can you? Each family member has a favorite dish that makes them come running to the table. On a each of 4 or 5 pieces of paper you’ll print: Entree, Side Dish, Starter, Salad and Desert? Then each of your family members get to pick a paper from a hat. They then choose what they would like to make or help prepare for the big family dinner the next night. If you have more people in the family you can make teams or add rolls or another side dish. We also suggest that someone in family does some video and treats the action like a cooking show, complete with funny commentary. Print out instructions, throw some upbeat music on and supervise as best you can. The kitchen will be a madhouse, pure chaos and mostly likely hysterical. Two things are guaranteed, the kitchen will be a mess and the memories will last a lifetime!

Mystery Meet

Posted on May 18, 2020June 1, 2020 by ourvirtualholiday

Murder Mysteries are a blast! Shoot did I just say “blast?” Blast it, did I just say “shoot?” Anyway they are a lot of fun to put on at home or even host virtually. Piecing together costumes and playing characters is only half the fun. When everyone acts out their parts you’ll die laughing!

One of our favorite murder mystery games is from Hunt a Killer! The best part about this subscription box is that the mystery and adventure is spread out over 6 “episodes”. Every month, you’ll receive a box of clues and evidence to help you solve the crime. Many of the crimes are ripped from the headlines (insert Law & Order boom-boom sound) and you’ll see the same evidence that real-life detectives had to build their case and find suspects.

Online communities are accessible for subscription holders where the evidence is discussed and theories shared, allowing you to connect and meet new people as you work to solve the crime.

For a limited time, we are offering 15% off your first box! Click this link to get started and enter the code 15PERCENT at checkout.

Happy Hunting!

Have a Rice Day

Posted on May 17, 2020June 24, 2020 by ourvirtualholiday

Sushi has become a delicious staple of the American diet. It is one of those foods that manages to remain exotic even though we consume it on a regular basis. Being that it is a specialty, folks are far less likely to attempt to make it at home. Now that folks are far less likely to go to restaurants there may be a sushi void in your household. For all of these reasons this could be the perfect project for you and your teen. Unless you’re able to get to a specialty store to pick up the correct and unique items you will need, you may have to allow time to get certain things delivered. Below is a list of things that you might need. Keep in mind this is all before you even choose which kind of sushi you’re going to make.

Bamboo Rice Paddle
Bamboo Rolling Mat
Roasted Seaweed Sheets (Nori).
Sushi Rice
Rice Vinegar
Soy Sauce
Wasabi.
Chopstix for Everyone
Sushi Oke/Hangiri – optional, but recommended.
9. Sushi oke, also called hangiri, are shallow flat-bottomed bowls made from a type of Japanese cypress called hinoki.

Age of Aquariums

Tanks Mom and Dad! This is a hobby I can really get into.

Here are some fun facts about this great passtime:
You never have to take the fish for a walk or clean poop out of your yard.

They come in a wide variety of looks and sizes.

The sound of the constant water filtration is relaxing although it can lead to constant feeling that you need to go. Watching the fish in the gently flickering dappled light and the rushing water with bubbles can be extremely relaxing, bring down stress levels and help you get to sleep. There is also something to be said for having to run the system and balance the pH to keep your fish healthy and alive. These activities encourage nurturing, responsibility and just a touch of science.
