Leveling Up Date Night with So Wood Cheese Board

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to snacking and having lunches, Dann and I both really enjoy a snacky board. Often, we will just pull a bunch of random meats, cheeses, and fruits out of our fridge and eat them out of the various containers, instead of making proper plates of food. Sometimes, however, Dann and I like to make things a little fancy. So Wood round cheese board is the perfect way to level up your lunch and make it feel like a real date.

Garden Heist – All about what you can see

[Ad- gifted products] We play a lot of board games and often find mechanics we have previously seen, done in new ways. This week, when we went to Geek Retreat to play Garden Heist, we didn’t realize how different and unique this game would be! The setup itself already feels very different – using the bottom of the box, you basically set up a little house with a little window. Then, outside the house, there is a bunch of trees and garden items placed in a specific order. Meeples start off at the other end of the board, opposite of the house, so that you can see the garden from the house window.

Exploring the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao

[Ad- gifted experience] Back in 2020, I visited the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, but as with any museum, a lot of the exhibitions have changed. The Guggenheim Museum is a beautiful building, both inside and out. The outside looks like scales of metal, with different statues and structures around the outside. At the front, there is a giant dog covered in flowers, at the back a large spider creature and a bunch of silver balls all stacked up on top of each other. Just going around the outside is beautiful. At the time that I went to the museum, there were a lot of fantastic exhibitions to take a look at as well.

The Matter of Time

Hot Pot at Happy Lamb Holborn

Dann and I don’t tend to celebrate Valentine’s Day on the day. There are always too many people out and about, and we have traditions that we do with our own children that we prioritise. However, we do take a day out of the beginning of February and go out for Hot Pot. Hot Pot is one of Dann’s favorite things to have, and it’s a food that you eat slowly, while talking and hanging out, so it’s a great way to reflect on your relationship and each other. As a bonus, it’s absolutely delicious! This year, we went to Happy Lamb in Holborn.
