Hick’s Orchard is a place I actually worked at, as a kid. I feel like everyone in the area has worked at Hick’s at one point or another. It’s one of those pick your own places, with a nice sized farm shop, a hard cider taste room and more all in one space. When I worked at Hick’s, I was always there for apple season – that’s when there is a lot going on as they are best known for their apples, really. But, this time of year, my sister wanted to go blueberry picking – and because I was in town, I figured I would go along too!

Easing Chronic Pain with the Actigun Pro
[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to back pain, my back is pretty bad. When I was a child, I had gotten into an accident that has effected my spine and the muscles around it. Being an American, we did not go to the doctors and instead let my back heal on my own. Since then, I have been in pain. I wake up most mornings in mild discomfort, which increases throughout the day. Some days are worse than others – sometimes standing while doing dishes will cause lightning feeling pain up my spine. Other days, I can manage it and am fine until I go to bed. It’s not something I really talk about, because it’s really just apart of my life.

My kids have actually never been to Wahaca, so it was very lovely to get to show them a restaurant that I have enjoyed. When Jupiter and I go to Wahaca, we normally order a bunch of small items from their menu and split them, so that’s what we did here.

Satisfying your sweet tooth with Panda Sweets
[Ad- gifted product] We all have a bit of a sweet tooth – and pick and mix is one of the most fun ways of trying out new candies, exploring new tastes, and otherwise enjoying something sweet. when I lived in the US, we didn’t have pick and mix shops as such – we had penny candy, but I tended to get all of one kind.

Ever since then, I have enjoyed pick and mix, and trying out different candies. Panda Sweets is a candy company that mails sweets right to your door – giving you a large variety of sweets to enjoy.
