[Ad- gifted products] We use a ton of bath bombs in our household! Robin is the biggest bath bomb user, but Amelia and I often grab a bath bomb here and there when wanting to pamper ourselves. When Mia Venus reached out, looking for reviews of their handcrafted bath bombs, I was pretty excited to check them out! I love a good, handmade bath bomb to try out.

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to elevating your cooking, this can easily be done through seasoning or adding a little something different to your cooking. All Things Butter do a range of flavored butters – butters with other things added into it, which can change the taste and flavor of the dishes that you are making. We got the chance to try two of the different flavors, Garlic & Herb and Chili. Obviously these are butters, so you can use them in anything that you would normally put butter into. All Things Butter are committed to British farming, with their farm set in Somerset, traditionally batch churning and hand salting the butter itself, making it a gourmet butter.

Amelia has been so excited for the next cupcake class! We both go together, as daughter-mother time, each month. She picked the Spooky Cupcake Class for October, which felt very fitting and had some fantastic designs! Unlike the previous cupcake classes we have attended so far, these cupcakes all felt completely different in design. What I mean by that is, often, there are two cupcakes that are featured and unique, as well as two sets of two that are similar as sort of side cupcakes. Sweet Designs by Jennie releases her cupcake classes each month, with tons of new ones to choose from.

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to granola, we often eat them as parfaits with yogurt, a staple easy breakfast for our household. There are actually a lot of different granolas on the market; some with fruit pieces, some with seeds, some that are quite plain in flavor too. Lizi’s Low Sugar Nuts & Seeds Granola is an actually a pretty fun granola, despite saying low in sugar, with a bunch of seeds and nuts throughout it. Robin had a fun time picking out the different seeds and trying them individually, as she hadn’t had seeds before! We also tried their Maple and Pecan, which has my favorite nuts in them and a nice amount of sweetness.
Dann and I actually went to Novo Lounge when it first launched, taking our children with us. We ended up having a bit of a chaotic time, particularly due to some picky eaters who weren’t really sure what they were ordering before it arrived. We’ve been back a few times to grab drinks during their happy hour, but decided to try them out again for dinner, with a friend of ours, after an evening of playing Pokemon Go. Novo Lounge has a lot of community activities going on; drag bingo, board game nights, and on this particular night there was salsa practice happening! It’s great to see a venue become such a staple in the community and fun that they run so many events.
