Back to School Essentials

Back to School Essentials

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad – Gifted Products] Back to school always comes around a little faster than we’d like! Now that summer is winding to the end, it’s time to look at your school supplies and see what needs replacing. We tend to refresh most things in our household, so that everyone has a new set for the new year. Below are some of the essentials we get for back to school time!

Personalised Water Bottle

Water bottles are a real essential when it comes to schooltime, and they always need your child’s name on them. Opting for a personalised water bottle will save you having to write their name on it, which could end up washed away, and creates something specifically for your child! Robin really loves this simple, cute designed water bottle that came with two different lids; one screw off and one sippy lid.

Stellar Restaurant Ephemera - A Space Food Experience

Stellar Restaurant Ephemera – A Space Food Experience

Posted on by Jupiter

While in Paris for Go Fest Global, a Pokemon Go event, our friends Molly and Husky recommended a restaurant that they felt Dann and I would really love; Stellar Restaurant – Ephemera. Ephemera have a bunch of different, themed restaurant experiences, and Stellar is their space-themed place to eat. As we love experiences and we love trying new food, this felt like such a great recommendation and I am so glad we went along! You do need to book ahead, online, and when you show up you get to walk through a bunch of well-decorated areas to get to your seat. The walls themselves have space-themed atmospheres being projected, and there is a mystical, calm music playing. The ceiling is covered in planet decorations and mood lighting. It’s got some great vibes! But, let’s get into the food.

Trying the Little Big Flavour Kits Pineapple Curry

Trying the Little Big Flavour Kits Pineapple Curry

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to trying new foods, often these types of easy-to-use kits are a great introduction! I had not ever heard of a pineapple, meat-free curry, but was very excited to try the Little Big Flavours Kits Pineapple Curry. We took this kit on holiday with us to Center Parcs Elveden, as it only takes a few ingredients and creates a lot of easy, delicious food. It felt like the perfect little kit to have in our cabin, ready for a meal in. We’ve tried Little Big Flavour Kits before, so this felt like a great thing to have in our bag. If this or any of their kits is something you want to try, you can get 15% off until the end of September by using code JUPITER15 on their website.

Fancy Dinner at El Brellin

Fancy Dinner at El Brellin

Dann and I wanted to go to a more fancy dinner while in Milan, and what better place than along the river in Vicolo dei Lavandai! There was tons of night life in the area, lots of different restaurants, but we walked along until we saw El Brellin tucked away, with upscale Italian food. Previously, this building was an old grocery store, where women who washed clothing would grab supplies. The layout hasn’t changed much, still showcasing the 1700s fireplace and coffered ceilings. We were excited to try the menu after seeing some of the selection. They have an ever changing menu, so I cannot find an accurate menu of what we had, so these names may have changed.

A Selection of Cold Cuts, Cheese Flan, and Venison Sausage

A Week at Center Parcs Elveden

A Week at Center Parcs Elveden

Posted on by Jupiter

We’ve been to Woolacombe Bay, we’ve been to Great Yarmoth, Butlins and to many other holiday places, but I have always heard people talk about Center Parcs. Now that two of our children have hit the teenage age, we have decided to go for it and go to Center Parcs Elveden, which is the closest one to us, for an entire week long holiday! We booked in the middle area, so it was a ten minute walk from the center of the park, and made sure to stay on the side closest to the water park as it was clear that was where we’d be spending most of our time.
