Desserts from Around The World

Posted on January 30, 2025February 13, 2025 by Jupiter

Last summer we did Breakfast from Around The World, trying out a bunch of different breakfasts so that we could see what our children liked and disliked, along with experiencing more of the world, through food. As the summer holiday approached, all three of them asked if we would be doing breakfast around the world again or possibly a new “around the world” food series. So, desserts from around the world is what we settled on! We selected a bunch of different desserts from different parts of the world that we have not had before and tried them for ourselves.

Lunch out at The Green Man Pub

Posted on January 28, 2025February 10, 2025 by Jupiter

While out running some errands with a friend, Dann and I wanted to stop for a slightly bigger lunch as we had a busy day ahead. Wanting to try a pub we’ve seen a few times, we headed over to The Green Man Pub in Old Harlow. The Green Man Pub is in a historic 14th century Jacobean style building, with a lot of character to it. There is a dedicated car park, outdoor seating and plenty of indoor seating. It’s also dog friendly, with treats within one of the entrances.

We went on a soggy afternoon, when the pub was just starting to fill up. We sat ourselves down and checked out the dinner menu. They have a few highlighted beers and some specials that end up rotating along with a classic pub menu. Though we were there for lunch, we ordered off of the dinner menu as that’s what caught our eye.

Try New Dishes with Little Big Flavour Kits

Posted on January 24, 2025February 5, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to trying new foods, especially cuisines that you have not tried before, it can be very daunting to make them at home! Often, we have curries when ordering takeaway, but it’s not something we’ve really dived into making too many times before, due to not having much experience in how to make it. It’s the same with side dishes within that type of meal. That’s why we were so excited when Little Big Flavour Kits reached out with their new range of Indian meal kits, which break down how to make the meal and provide all of the different spices for easy use.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Gnocchi, Sloppy Joes, Sushi Bowls and more.

Posted on January 21, 2025January 21, 2025 by Jupiter

I sometimes get into a rut, repeatedly cooking the same dinners. We do have a lot of family favorites, but it’s always fun to try something new! Dann and I have discovered a few brands of gnocchi that we quite enjoy, so we’ve been introducing that into our meals. Along with gnocchi, we wanted to create some meals that allowed our children to top the bowls themselves, introducing new ingredients that they likely haven’t tired before, but making it their choice. So, we have some fun meals that have a lot of customizations!

Under the Sea Cupcake Class with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Posted on January 17, 2025January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

The Under the Sea Cupcake Class hosted by Sweet Designs by Jennie is a theme that she has quite often, as it’s a very fun class and not very specific to any sort of holiday. We’ve done a lot of holiday-related classes in the past, so it was nice to try out a class that feels general! Our goal is to end up going to them all. Under the Sea Cupcake Class is a fondant class which requires very little piping but had some new tools to work with.
