Junior Colourbrain – Questions about Colors

[Ad- gifted product] We are always looking for more family games to play together, especially when on holiday. This year, during our weekend away at Waxham Sands, we took along Junior Colourbrain. This is a card based game that’s quite small, so easy to pack and take with you anywhere. The game itself is two player or divide everyone into teams of two. The concept its very simple and the amount of cards you do need to play with aren’t too many, making it ideal for on the go gameplay.

Things to know before getting a septum piercing

[Updated on September 3rd, 2024, to add more information] On May 18th, 2019, I finally took the dive and got my septum piercing done. I had been thinking about getting my nose pierced for years and years, but I felt it was a big commitment. As someone who travels so much, I didn’t want to deal with aftercare while in another country, but May seemed like a great time with not many events in the horizons. Before getting a septum piercing, I did do some research and read loads of posts about this specific nose ring, but I do feel that there were many aspects that just were not touched on.

Eating Delicious Meat at the Fire and Smoke Festival Maldon

[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

[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.

Dole Fruit Jelly for Packed Lunches and Snacks!

[Ad- gifted product] I feel like Dole is a household name or at least one that I have grown up with and always had in my house! They were known as “the banana brand” but moved into lots of other fruit-related things, including jelly, as well as vegetable related things like salad bags. We often actually have Dole Fruit Jelly for breakfast, specifically the orange jelly with mandarin oranges in it, as it’s a big family favorite. Jelly is just a common snack in our household and as we often have jelly packed in our packed lunches, when Dole reached out asking if we wanted to review some more of their kids jellies, we were pretty excited! These three flavors of jelly included my absolute favorite fruit cup and two new ones for Kai, Amelia and Robin to try.
