Celebrating 10+ years of #DoTheDaniel
At thirty five years old in the heart of the summer, I find myself googling costume ideas. No, not for October 31st. But for August 22-25th in the heart of Toronto. Why you ask? Well it’s one of my favourite times of year again – it’s FAN EXPO Canada. From Pokémon to Nintendo, cosplay to fan art, we’re in for one of the best #FANEXPOcanada years yet and I’m here to tell you why.

I’ve never been one to follow trends or fall in line. My mom stills tells the story of me in kindergarten being put in time out to think about what I did. When the teacher turned back around from the chalk board, I was back in circle time. When she asked me why I wasn’t in the corner, I promptly replied “You told me to think about what I did.

That being said, just because I’m on a budget, doesn’t mean that I don’t want to take full advantage of the warm weather and enjoy getaways whenever we can. Thankfully I was recently introduced to a getaway idea in our own proverbial backyard that not only stayed in budget, but left me excited to tell you about it too!

Sounds like a silly question, doesn’t it? Most days I don’t know what I’m making us for dinner when I get home and after I walk the dog. But that is of course because I don’t have the foresight that I do today in telling you that it is OFFICIALLY 100 days until the launch of Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield, which is launching on November 15. To share in the excitement, I thought I’d share some fun facts with you about the launch and why both Julio & I can’t wait to join in on the excitement with you all!
