A Week at Center Parcs Elveden

Posted on August 18, 2025August 18, 2025 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.

SnackMagic – Gifting Lots of Snacks

Posted on August 15, 2025August 28, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] I feel that hampers are one of the best types of gifts to get, especially if the hamper has items in it that you’d use and eat. SnackMagic is an interesting way of giving gifts, as you would set your budget, then gift the ability for your friend to pick which hamper they’d like to receive. I selected the Taste of America snack box, though there was an American chocolate bar specific box, along with a large number of other snack boxes, pampering boxes, and so much more. It actually took a while for me to choose, but I felt this box would give me some nostalgia and also allow me to share some unique items with our children.

Experiencing Magic in House of Dreamers

Posted on August 14, 2025August 28, 2025 by Jupiter

Dann and I really enjoy going to places that feel like they might be made for Instagram – places that are a little different and out of the way. So, while in Paris, we wanted to check out the House of Dreamers. The House of Dreamers might have started off as a Barbie Experience, based on the amount of pink and the fun Barbie vibes, but now acts as a bunch of magical, mysterious rooms, many of which have different phrases that felt empowering and motivating, which was a really positive experience.

The Steak Board at Baha Bowness

Posted on August 13, 2025August 11, 2025 by Jupiter

Each year, for our anniversary, we go to The Lakes Hotel and Spa, and while there go out for food nearby. Dann picked out Baha Bowness, which was right near another restaurant we quite enjoyed, as a new place to try out. Their food looked good, a nice Korean-fusion going on, and it didn’t match that of the pubs that can be found in the area – which is exactly what we were looking for. The general vibes were great – fantastic music and good staff. It’s also a dog friendly venue, which works well with all of the people walking their dogs along the lake. They also have live music on a lot of the nights, if that’s something you’re into.

Unicorns & Rainbow Wreath with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Posted on August 12, 2025August 11, 2025 by Jupiter

Each month, Amelia and I have a little mother-daughter time going to a cupcake class in Essex, which is lead by Sweet Designs by Jennie. We’ve been going to a few different wreath classes, which are a more free-style cake decorating classes. Instead of a half dozen cupcakes, we decorate ten, and the idea is to make a bunch of little decorations and then add them wherever you want really! We started off the class, as usual, with all the cupcakes already baked and cooked and all of the frosting and fondant already out and ready.
