Project 365 – September

Posted on October 1, 2025October 3, 2025 by Jupiter

September starts off strong, with Dann’s birthday right at the start (and all of his other birthday-related celebrations after it). This month did fly by, with a good mix of adventures, family outtings, and otherwise enjoying the start of the autumn season. We even travelled to another country this month, which is always such a fun time for us. As a part of Project 365, I wrote about each and every day in September, alongside a picture. Some bloggers – who you will find at the end of this post – post their Project 365 daily or weekly, but I post mine monthly as a big recap of the entire busy month.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Meatballs, Some Curry Dishes, Sweet Potato Nachos and More

Posted on September 30, 2025September 27, 2025 by Jupiter

This week we played around with sweet potato, as this was one of our highlighted ingredients. I have been cutting down on my meat consumption, having alternative versions of a lot of the dinners that I have been making, so there are more meat-free options than their have been in previous weeks. There are also some fantastic comfort foods and lots of foods that Amelia very much enjoyed – I think this is her favorite mix yet of new stuff and classics that she enjoyed.

Touring Redchurch Brewery in Harlow

Posted on September 29, 2025September 27, 2025 by Jupiter

Dann and I have been looking to do more local events in our town and came across the Redchurch Brewery, which offer monthly beer tasting and tours! Dann was very excited to try out new beers and had no idea that they did tours, so we eagerly waited for the date to come up. The Redchurch Brewery is a small local, brewery that brews a bunch of beers in massive vats. We got the chance to sample five different beers, all of which were made there.

The afternoon at Redchurch Brewery started off with a beer of course – their premium in-house beer. Everybody was given a half-pint of the ‘Redchurch premium lager’ while we were talked through the different parts of the tour. The tour kicked off with an explaination of the brewing process and what goes into making different beers and alcoholic drinks, as well as a history of the brewery itself and how it has changed owners over the years. We all got the chance to smell a selection of different hops and ingredients, and there was some really interesting charts that showed how different ingredients create different types of beer.

Can You Do Sacramento Without a Car? A Family’s Urban Adventure

Posted on September 28, 2025October 14, 2025 by Contributor

Most families land in Sacramento and grab a rental car without thinking twice. It feels automatic. Big city, a state’s capital, lots to see, kids in the mix and you figure a car is a must. But Sacramento isn’t like Los Angeles or San Francisco. It’s slower, calmer. The light rail glides through downtown. People walk more and it’s easier to breathe.

So the question is – can a family visit Sacramento without driving anywhere? No minivan, no parking headaches, no car seats. Just walking, a few bus rides, maybe a bike or two.

The answer is yes. And it changes how the city feels.

The Essential Role of Baking Ingredients

Posted on September 28, 2025October 14, 2025 by Contributor

Baking is termed as science as well as an art. Each loaf of bread, each dainty cake, each pastry relies on the interaction of ingredients, what compliments and complements what and helps improve the other. Not to mention the texture of the flour or the generosity of butter, each constituent will influence the overall flavor, structure, and quality of what is to be taken out of the oven. You may be a weekend amateur cook or a great amateur cook who is willing to experiment with everything you can make, but you need to know your ingredients in order to perfect your craft. Bake With Yen has stores which quality supplies can change the life of those who love baking in Singapore.
