A Day Out at the Line Friends / BT21 x Artbox Cafe & Boutique

Posted on July 13, 2021January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

The Artbox Cafe & Boutique has changed their theme again, for the first time since lockdown, so we all really just had to go back! This cafe, if you don’t know, changes the theme of the characters, the menu, and all of the merch inside the boutique every few months, providing a new experience. These themes all based around Japanese characters and shows, showcasing cute and colorful creatures that bring a fantastic feeling to the place. Previously, we’ve seen the Pusheen theme, the Gudetama theme, and the spooky Gudetama theme, however, BT21 and Line Friends were new characters for me! Let’s get into what was on the menu. As always, we went with Claire who also write up the cafe on her blog, and this time she brought along her partner David!

Dinners made Easy with Supreme Sausages

Posted on July 10, 2021August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Sausages are a British staple, something that you can find in every shop, but not all sausages are made equally. There are different grinds, seasonings and qualities to the sausages you can pick up. Supreme Sausages is a family run sausage business, who are striving for the very finest in Great British sausages, with award winning sausages under their belt.

Their family has been producing sausages for three generations – so they really know their stuff. They have 10 different varieties which all use quality, British farmed pork, spices, chillies, garlic, mushrooms, honey, tomatoes apples, wine and herbs all stiffed into hog casing in the same way they have been doing it for years. Supporting small, family ran businesses is something we always strive for, and with Supreme Sausages, it’s made pretty easy as you can get these sausages mailed right to your door. We ended up trying out two of their sausages, in two different dinners, which were both so tasty and delicious.

Maintaining a bathroom wooden floor

Posted on July 8, 2021August 27, 2024 by Contributor

Wooden flooring has a pretty distinct look – a warm look that can make a home feel sleek or rustic, depending on the other features of the house. Often, people wonder if they can have wooden flooring in their bathroom and how to maintain the flooring once it is in. Wooden flooring isn’t a super common choice when it comes to rooms that are known to be steamy, wet and moist more often then others, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a wooden flooring.

If you are going to go with wooden flooring in your bathroom, you are going to want to go with an engineered wood flooring as this type of wooden flooring is more water resistant then normal wooden flooring, giving you more of a fighting chance to keep your flooring perfect. Unlike when you have wooden flooring in other spaces in your home, your bathroom floor will need a bit more upkeep an maintenance, but it is still do-able if you want this sort of look for your home.

Getting outdoors with the Bug Safari Kit

Posted on July 7, 2021August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to bugs, Nick Baker is the main guy making all of these amazing bug kits. We’ve previously had a look at the Ant World kit, which found a lot of love in our home, so we were pretty interesting in playing around with the Bug Safari kit, especially as Amelia and Robin had a big interest in bugs – and not just ants. The Bug Safari kit is perfect for those looking to explore a local forest or backyard, finding insects and trying to notice details about them that they may not see in general play. It often take quite a bit of effort to stop and quietly look around, so this kit provided a nice amount of change from the normal way the girls play!

Posted on July 5, 2021November 14, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to what I wear, I have been making more of an effort lately – especially as lockdown has started to ease – to find clothing that looks good on me. My clothing did need a bit of an overhaul and finding smart t-shirts that could be versatile, something that can be worn with jeans for a casual look or done up with a cardigan to be something a bit more sleek, was exactly what I needed.
