Conclave of Chaos Review & Witch Cosplay Tutorial
I did something really cool recently that I’ve wanted to do for years but have never gotten the chance to. I am not nearly coordinated enough for LARP (Live Action Role Play) battles and they’ve always quite intimidated me.

So when one of my best friends invited me to Rock n Roll Bride Live, I just had to say YES!
Nerds on Tour: Review of Nerdy Board Game Cafe, Shrewsbury
I first heard that Nerdy Coffee Co were opening a board game cafe in Shrewsbury, when I visited for a friend’s wedding. I had the good fortune of meeting the owners there and chatted about how exciting it was that they were opening soon.
