Pikachu, I Choose YOU! “Let’s Go” Games for the Nintendo Switch

Pikachu, I choose you! All four of my kids grew up interested in Pokémon to some extent or another, but none as much as my younger daughter. She was a Pokémon fan of the biggest sort, to the point where now as a young adult, she has a poke ball tattoo on her leg. (I get it, I have a Marvel character tattoo on my arm!) We’re super-excited now to hear that the Pokémon games, “Let’s Go, Eevee!” and “Let’s Go, Pikachu!” are now available for play on the Nintendo Switch, allowing both new trainers and old pros to play the classic RPG game on another device.

All the latest info is available over here on the Pokémon website, including videos and details about each version of the game. It’s just in time for meeting Christmas wish list additions! I know it’s going to be on Devon’s “must get” list, so the only question is this:

Which Pokémon do YOU choose?

For me, that answer is easy.

Pikachu, I choose you!

Pikachu, I choose you

Whichever version you do choose, you’ll travel through the colorful region of Kanto, catching and training Pokemon, battling gym leaders, other Pokémon trainers and Team Rocket, all with your partner, Pikachu or Eevee by your side.

Feel like a true Pokémon Trainer when playing with the Poké Ball Plus accessory – also available today – which replicates the look and feel of a real-life Poké Ball. Control your entire adventure using just Poké Ball Plus and make a gentle throwing motion to capture Pokémon. You can even put a Pokémon from Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! into the Poké Ball Plus accessory and take it on a stroll in the real world to level it up and receive in-game rewards. In addition, every Poké Ball Plus contains the Mythical Pokémon Mew.

I think there will be a lot of letters to Santa out there mentioning one or both of these games. The lure of Pokémon hasn’t waned in the 20 years since it began to be a fixture in our home, and I don’t see it waning any time soon. The games are fun, easy to start even if you’re new to Pokemon, and the characters are always cute. (And this one will have you running around saying, Pikachu I choose you!)

Starting today, Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! can each be purchased in a bundle with the Poké Ball Plus accessory at a suggested retail price of $99.99, or separately at a suggested retail price of $59.99 each. For those who don’t yet have a Nintendo Switch, there’s also a special-edition bundlefeaturing a Nintendo Switch system with themed Joy-Con controllers, a download code for either Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, and the Poké Ball Plus accessory, available at a suggested retail price of $399.99. Quantities of this adorable hardware bundle are extremely limited, so make sure you shop early. For more information about Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, visit https://www.pokemon.com/PokemonLetsGo.

Let me know which you choose, and have fun with Pikachu, Eevee and all the other poke monsters!

Pikachu, I choose you!

Me and the big guy! Thank you, Disneyland, for a m Me and the big guy! Thank you, Disneyland, for a merry and magical day visiting the parks! See you again soon, Mickey!

With Thanksgiving in the rear view, Christmas seas With Thanksgiving in the rear view, Christmas season is officially here. I can’t get enough of the castle. I have maxed out my Magic Key reservations during the season so I can fit in as much Disney magic as possible. Now I just have to hope for no rain next week, last week’s visit was cold and rainy and the new treehouse was closed for safety reasons…but the castle was still beautiful! 

To answer the question that inevitably gets asked: no, no one is ever too old for Disneyland and it’s not just for kids. I grew up going to the park, after having moved to California as a teen (from NY) and my kids grew up with passes too. It’s a part of my life that makes me happy, and life is too short to not do all the things you enjoy. I’m taking the grandbabies in January and I cannot wait! 

Merry Christmas! 🤣🤣

Hosting a party that you want your guests to remem Hosting a party that you want your guests to remember forever? Try a Christmas Vacation aka Griswold Christmas party! This infamous scene with Clark and Cousin Eddie is just one recreation from our favorite Christmas movie ever. What else did we recreate?

The squirrel in the tree
A <moving> cat in a box
The ladder with a sleeve hanging from the side of the house
Aunt Bethany’s Jell-o mold with cat food
Punch bowl of egg nog and moose mugs
A dry turkey that caves in

Aaaaand….later in the evening…the shape of Aunt Bethany’s cat on the floor.

We’ve hosted this party many times over the years, each year with added costume contest and added fun — like quotes placed all around the house to remind people to have the  hap-hap-happiest Christmas. The link to our blog post with all the tips is in the bio above!

“Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, kiss my ass. Kiss his ass. Kiss your ass. Happy Hanukkah.”

The Christmas tree is up at Victoria Gardens here The Christmas tree is up at Victoria Gardens here in Rancho Cucamonga, California, and I’m so ready for the holidays! We’ve been regulars at this outdoor shopping mall since it initially opened, and all four of our kids took photos with the Santa here until they were too big to admit to still believing in Santa. 

Snowfall happens on Friday and Saturday nights at 7pm, the train takes kids for a ride around the tree, and Santa reservations can be made by visiting the VG website. Santa even takes photos with pets! <Yes, I AM making reservations for Shuri and Lady Sif to see the big guy.>

Let the holiday shopping season begin!

Wine lovers — new to wine, continuously learning Wine lovers — new to wine, continuously learning about wine or collectors — have you tried Madeira wine from Portugal lately? I had the absolute pleasure of being invited to attend the Madeira Wine Experience Los Angeles 2023, an all-day press and industry event held at the Maybourne Beverly Hills. The event consisted of seminars from industry experts, including Eugenio Jardim (Sommelier and Wines of Portugal brand ambassador), Camron Robertson (General Manager of the popular bar, Thunderbolt LA) and major wine producers from the beautiful island of Madeira. I learned about Madeira wine pairing and how to make cocktails with Madeira, two topics I knew little about, and in-between, we enjoyed the wine tasting, cocktails and buffets. I’ve covered it all in-depth over on the blog, which you can find in my bio. Go check it out! My goal is to help make wine verbiage and knowledge easy to learn and accessible to everyone. Wine tasting and purchasing can be intimidating, but it doesn’t need to be! Wine should be enjoyable and fun for everyone! Swipe to see some pics and video of the day!

So thankful we were invited to the “Bringing Gra So thankful we were invited to the “Bringing Gratitude to the Table” event this past Sunday, Nov. 5, at Rocio’s Mexican Kitchen in Bell Gardens! It was held in honor of the amazing Chef Rocio Camacho, also known as “La Diosa de los Moles.” (It’s even on the front of her restaurant!) Chef Camacho is a member of the Affluent Hispanic philanthropic program, a non-profit org aiming to make a difference by leading social initiatives and supporting causes in various industries. 

Chef Camacho has quite a story of her rise to being the goddess of mole. Born in Mexico, she emigrated to the US, where she was nominated for a James Beard award and is also mentioned in the Michelin Guide. 

Rocio’s Mexican Kitchen is a small restaurant on a corner, but in that small space, she shares food with huge flavor and heart. Her mole alone is worth the drive, and at this event honoring her, we tried chicken mole tacos 🌮, camerones and birria. And the salsa! 🔥

@FordLatino was also present, and Ford sent along their Expedition Timberline. (It is a beaut, with its rough road suspension, zone lighting, room for 8, and an ABS with Ford Trail Control — it’ll make great driving in the upcoming winter weather here in SoCal!) 

Thank you to @AffluentHispanic @Robertocarlos.la and @exquisitamentetv for the invite! There was dancing, a fun DJ, the talented @DanielMondragonMusic and @Beautiful_poisons made some pretty mean cocktails. (That passionfruit marg!) Meeting everyone was a lot of fun and that SUV is gorgeous — but the food! Put Rocio’s on your list of places to fill your mole needs. You will not be disappointed! Don’t miss her shop, full of a wide range of fun products, located right across the parking lot. (Street parking is available across the main intersection if the lot is full!)
