Triyit Box – Testing New Brands

Posted on March 6, 2025March 5, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] We have qualified and received another Triyit Box, which is always pretty exciting. These aren’t subscription boxes, and instead are boxes of new products that companies are looking for feedback for. Most of out Triyit Boxes look quite similar; snacks, drinks, and cat food or treats. This box contained a decent amount of products, that we then needed to try and fill out surveys for. The goal is to give product feedback and maybe find some new family favorites.

Eating noodles at UDON Bilbao Abando

Posted on March 5, 2025March 5, 2025 by Jupiter

After visiting the Guggenheim in Bilbao, we were all looking for a place to eat, so stumbled upon UDON Bilbao Abando. This Asian restaurant is quite nearby, has a sustainability award, and says they specialize in noodles. I am a huge fan of both noodles and Asian food, so was very interested in eating here. As they had some vegan options, for our vegan friend, we went right in to see if it was as good as expected.

Traditional Dinner at The Bothy Restaurant and Bar

Posted on February 27, 2025February 26, 2025 by Jupiter

While staying in Loch Ness with Abbey Holidays, we weren’t very interested in cooking our on food! The Bothy Bar and Restaurant is one we often passed going from Loch Ness to our accommodation. They offer a traditional Scottish menu and feel a lot like a community bar and restaurant, with tons of families inside. The place was absolutely packed when we arrived, so I didn’t get any pictures of the inside in the end, but people eating were sat in a conservatory on the side of the main building, which had a large bar. All of the specials were written on a giant chalk board next to the serving area for the staff. We were seated quite quickly, as they don’t take reservations, and went straight into looking at the menu.

Oh My Pigeons – Silly Bird-Inspired Board Game

Posted on February 26, 2025February 25, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] On our bi-weekly board game night at Geek Retreat, we sat down to play Oh My Pigeons! This board game is one we saw at the Christmas Press Show before Christmas of last year, and got an adorable key chain stuffed animal of. Robin, who loves birds, was quite interested in the sound of the game, especially after having the plush key chain for so long. It’s a silly game where you find yourself trying to fill up a coop of pigeons.

Seeing Animals at Cameron’s Tearoom and Farm Shop

Posted on February 21, 2025February 21, 2025 by Jupiter

On our quest to pet Highland Cows while staying at The Highland Club in Fort Augustus, we heard about Cameron’s Tearoom and Farm Shop. There wasn’t much to go off of for the venue, but with the idea of seeing cows in mind, we headed there. Cameron’s Tearoom & Farm Shop is on the smaller, cozy side when it comes to seating. There is a fireplace roaring in the middle, it feels like sitting in someone’s living room, and there are a bunch of different sports jerseys hanging on the wall. When we arrived, it was during the switch between the breakfast menu and lunch menu, where the tearoom doesn’t serve food for half an hour. I didn’t realize this was a thing, but they let us come in and check out the menu while we waited.
