Level up your cooking with All Things Butter

Posted on October 30, 2024November 13, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to elevating your cooking, this can easily be done through seasoning or adding a little something different to your cooking. All Things Butter do a range of flavored butters – butters with other things added into it, which can change the taste and flavor of the dishes that you are making. We got the chance to try two of the different flavors, Garlic & Herb and Chili. Obviously these are butters, so you can use them in anything that you would normally put butter into. All Things Butter are committed to British farming, with their farm set in Somerset, traditionally batch churning and hand salting the butter itself, making it a gourmet butter.

Lizi’s Granola – Perfect for Crumbles

Posted on October 28, 2024November 8, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to granola, we often eat them as parfaits with yogurt, a staple easy breakfast for our household. There are actually a lot of different granolas on the market; some with fruit pieces, some with seeds, some that are quite plain in flavor too. Lizi’s Low Sugar Nuts & Seeds Granola is an actually a pretty fun granola, despite saying low in sugar, with a bunch of seeds and nuts throughout it. Robin had a fun time picking out the different seeds and trying them individually, as she hadn’t had seeds before! We also tried their Maple and Pecan, which has my favorite nuts in them and a nice amount of sweetness.

Lots of Tapas at Novo Lounge

Posted on October 25, 2024November 11, 2024 by Jupiter

Dann and I actually went to Novo Lounge when it first launched, taking our children with us. We ended up having a bit of a chaotic time, particularly due to some picky eaters who weren’t really sure what they were ordering before it arrived. We’ve been back a few times to grab drinks during their happy hour, but decided to try them out again for dinner, with a friend of ours, after an evening of playing Pokemon Go. Novo Lounge has a lot of community activities going on; drag bingo, board game nights, and on this particular night there was salsa practice happening! It’s great to see a venue become such a staple in the community and fun that they run so many events.

Making Flavored Yogurt with Easiyo

Posted on October 23, 2024November 6, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to making our own food, we have had some experience creating yogurt previously, however it relied on a type of milk that I found difficult to obtain and kind of expensive. Easiyo is a different way to create yogurt; it’s a sort of device that you can easily add yogurt mixes into it, make sure they are up to temperature, then wait a few hours and you suddenly have yoghurt.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Spooky Burgers, Calzones, Spooky Meatballs and more

Posted on October 21, 2024October 15, 2024 by Jupiter

We have been having more spooky or Halloween inspired food, as it’s such a fun time of the year. Along with these more labor intensive food, I’ve been making some Italian food that I find quick and easy. This week’s meals are a mix of both, so some classics everyone will love and some beautiful decorated spooky food that really will impress anyone who sees them.

Spooky Meatballs

I was inspired to be cute and spooky, so I tried making some spooky meatballs, two ways. Amelia doesn’t like cheese, so I made her some homemade meatballs and then wrapped them with puff pastry to create a mummy. I also took a bunch of meatballs, cooked them, and then put them on a baking tray. I then added a slice of cheese to the top of them. I feel that it might have come out better with some of those burger cheese slices, instead of real cheddar, but it did melt over the meatballs and became a sort of ghost! We served this over pasta with tomato sauce.
