Mountains from my Hometown | Dream of Mountains Challenge

I grew up in a very small town in Upstate NY. Despite it being small, it was right on the edge of the Adirondack Foothills, best known for their beautiful mountain ranges. This time of year, I think about the mountains a lot. In the fall, you see, the mountain range starts dancing with color and life. There are some amazing trees all crisp and colorful, waiting for the season to change. Some of my fondest memories are my grandmother driving around, just to take a look at the trees. When I heard about AliKats’ Dream of Mountains Challenge, I wanted to share my reasons why I miss the mountains.

Scrumbles Cat Advent Calendar | Review

Did you know they make cat advent calendars? Well, as an American living in the UK, I always forget about calendars. They just aren’t something I’ve ever had before – and as I am not a fan of chocolate – I haven’t been too interested in them before.

Peppa Pig Grow and Play Pot | Review

[Ad- gifted product] Robin is a really big fan of Peppa Pig. She enjoys watching the show on Netflix and we’ve also got a couple of toys – she even used to have Peppa Pig bedding. Earlier in this year, we reviewed the My Fairy Garden Fairy Garden set, which did belong to Amelia, but Robin really loved helping out with it and really wanted to be involved. She’d keep going out to check on how the grass was growing and would play with the little characters that came with it. Ever since then, we’ve been growing plants and such through some of the nature box subscriptions we do, and she has really enjoyed watching flowers grow, and planting stuff together. When we came across the Peppa Pig Grow and Play Pot, we were excited to see what Robin would make of having her own little garden set.

Christmas shopping across the miles with Moonpig

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to Christmas, there is always a lot of shopping to do! It’s one of my favorite things – picking out the perfect gift and seeing if your loved one enjoys it. As I live in a completely different country to my family, I do often send gifts directly to them – but since the world is currently the way it is, we are turning more and more to online shopping!

Their cards are what they are known for – and they have introduced a large amount of funny lockdown related cards and Christmas cards that can be send to your family and friends.

Mrs. Brown’s Kitchen Chicken Fajita Crowns | Review

[Ad- gifted product] Let’s start off this review by stating that I did not know who Mrs. Brown was before trying these treats and am just here for the food! For those, like me, who are unfamiliar, Mrs. Brown is the main character of Mrs. Brown’s Boys – a comedy TV series in the UK, which features many celebrity guests like Caitlin Jenner and Pamela Anderson. She clearly likes home cooking, which is why they have launched Mrs. Brown’s Kitchen – a line of easy to cook, easy to eat food. These foods are exclusively avaliable in store and online at Iceland.
