After visiting the Guggenheim in Bilbao, we were all looking for a place to eat, so stumbled upon UDON Bilbao Abando. This Asian restaurant is quite nearby, has a sustainability award, and says they specialize in noodles. I am a huge fan of both noodles and Asian food, so was very interested in eating here. As they had some vegan options, for our vegan friend, we went right in to see if it was as good as expected.
We got to Woolacombe Bay each year and always find somewhere nearby to go on the last day. Last year, we went to the Quince Honey Farm as per the promotion going on at Woolacombe Bay and this year they had a little promo with Watermouth Castle, so we wanted to check it out. Watermouth Castle has a lot more going on then we first thought when arriving. It is in fact a castle, but also an amusement park, which is absolutely fantastic.

This is the second month of Project 365, which I am doing monthly! If you aren’t aware, this is a sort of blog challenge, where people write a short diary entry every day for the entire year, often with a picture. Some people post theirs weekly or daily, but I post mine Monthly! You can check out a bunch of other bloggers participating, sharing their daily lives, at the bottom of this post. February is one of my favorite months, as it’s my Birthday Month.
This weeks meals are a little all over the place! Some are from before Kai started his fitness journey, with his personal trainer and an app that needs to measure his food and some are after. At the moment, we are sort of cooking him separate meals, to best support what he wants in life. It’s been a challenge adapting, but a challenge worth taking on for him. The rest of us are still looking to eat our favorites and try new foods as well!
The children have discovered their love of gnocchi, so we have been experimenting to figure out if they like it cooked different ways. We fried up some sausage in a pan, along with the gnocchi. There are two types; a sort of boiling type that ends up soft and a pan fried type that ends up crispy. These crispy ones got very crunchy on the outside! After they were crispy, we added in some Italian seasoning, cherry tomatoes and some fresh basil. Amelia and Robin decided they like it better soft, where as Kai likes them crunchy!

While staying in Loch Ness with Abbey Holidays, we weren’t very interested in cooking our on food! The Bothy Bar and Restaurant is one we often passed going from Loch Ness to our accommodation. They offer a traditional Scottish menu and feel a lot like a community bar and restaurant, with tons of families inside. The place was absolutely packed when we arrived, so I didn’t get any pictures of the inside in the end, but people eating were sat in a conservatory on the side of the main building, which had a large bar. All of the specials were written on a giant chalk board next to the serving area for the staff. We were seated quite quickly, as they don’t take reservations, and went straight into looking at the menu.
