Our Family's Favorite Soups for Autumn

Our Family’s Favorite Soups for Autumn

Posted on by Jupiter

If you have seen any of our midweek meal inspo posts, you’ll know that we all eat a variety of foods each and every week. As it’s fall time, we have been on a bit of a soup kick. There are so many delicious soups out there and they always feel so fun for autumn. With that in mind, we have tried so many different soups, and have a bunch of favorites that we want to share with you. These soups are kid friendly and great to make ahead and store in the freezer. Most of them could have pasta added too, if you’d like, though some of them are perfect without it.

Eating Delicious Meat at the Fire and Smoke Festival Maldon

Eating Delicious Meat at the Fire and Smoke Festival Maldon

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Food festivals are always something I enjoy going too! Bringing a bunch of different food stalls to one area, where I can walk around and pick exactly what I want, is the best way to eat food. The Fire and Smoke Festival is a food festival that focuses specifically on BBQ food, however I do feel it felt like a fantastic meat showcase, for those who like a variety of different meats. Dann and I went around trying a bunch of food at lunchtime and enjoyed a lot of the activities and shows they had!

Dalston Deli - Freshly Made Focaccia

Dalston Deli – Freshly Made Focaccia

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Focaccia bread trended during lockdown, with so many people learning how to make bread. It’s soft, it’s delicious, it’s often quite satisfying to eat. Dalston Deli has taken focaccia bread, baked daily, and created a bunch of packed sandwiches that are filled with fillings and sauces made in house. Their focus on freshness is reflected in the number of sandwiches they have each day; only 50! So pre-ordering the sandwich you’d like is heavily recommended.

Celebratory Dinner at Sevine Brasserie

Celebratory Dinner at Sevine Brasserie

Posted on by Jupiter

Sevine Brasserie, a stylish new Mediterranean food stop, opened up last year in the Water Gardens in Harlow! It’s a place that Dann and I have walked past dozens of times, looking like a great, upscale lunch, brunch and dinner venue. Often, there are people enjoy coffees outside around lunchtime and drinks in the evening. They have really ramped up this year, providing a lot of outdoor music and entertainment for the local community. Dann and I both kept saying we would eat there soon, so when I finished and submitted my book to my publisher at the start of this month, it felt like it was time to eat somewhere new, and Sevine Brasserie came to mind!

Midweek Meal Inspo; Carbonara, Stuffed Bell Peppers, Potato Chip Chicken Tenders and more

Posted on by Jupiter

It’s summertime and we have been having fun in the kitchen. We all always are trying new food and during the summer, there is just a bit more flexibility in times as our children don’t have tons of clubs and the like to attend. This week, we had some new recipes and some old favorites that we just haven’t had for a while. Robin also helped with a beef and broccoli dish right before school ended, which came out grand, so I included that too. Let’s get into this week’s meal inspiration.
