Took the girls to Sweet Lair in Menasha today!

They had fun designing and eating cupcakes (pick the cake, frosting, filling and toppings!) and each had a seasonal frappe. Sugared them both up so good this morning. 😆

I just had a vanilla iced latte and a chocolate cupcake with vanilla buttercream.

I love that this place also has a wall of games you can play while there!

And, it's included in the Wisconsin Coffee Shop passport!

Neglected to get a pic of my supper yummy marscapone + berry jam toast, but Coffee Wizardz in Appleton with friends was a great morning stop!

Rain check coffee this morning with Patty McGowan! Tempest coffee collective in Appleton never disappoints. Love the outside patio, and my latte and peach baked oatmeal were delicious! The egg sammich biscuit looked pretty darn good, too!

What was going to be a coffee shop stop with my aunt ended up being an impromptu, here daughter, pick out a place, after she finished her weekly voice lesson. She needed some 1:1 mom time, and I'm so proud of this kid doing some hard things. We also agreed that the coffee and and treats at Whisk and Arrow are 10/10 amazing. And, I get another raincheck coffee date this week so I call that a double win! Stay tuned... 😏
Thankful it's summer and could give my fav teen some TLC when needed. 🥹

"And we're back in the game" said like Cameron in 10 Things I hate About You. IYKYK. 😄 If you haven't watched this; you should.
Took a friend out for bday coffee at 313 Dodge which is one of my fav local spots! We both had strawberry rhubarb baked oatmeal and he had "boring" coffee whilst I splurged on a June special Churro Mocha. So good. Don't mind the bitten into oatmeal before pic! 😋☕

Brought lattes home, but hung out at a local fav this morning - il bar bistro in Kimberly! But let's be real, besides lattes, this morning's motivation was to get some permanent jewelry from Blonde & Bond!
