Love Corn Snacks – Perfect for Packed Lunches

[Ad- gifted product] We’ve been fans of the corn snack Love Corn for quite some time now, so we were delighted when we saw that they are now doing smaller, travel-sized packs, along with a new flavor to try out! Love Corn, if you aren’t familiar, is a crunchy corn snack that are air roasted instead of fried, making it a fun, low-calorie snack. These corn snacks reminded me of beer snacks when I first had them (and since I’ve been to Spain recently, where they often have crunchy corn snacks served with beer).

Birthday Dinner at Nom Nom Restaurant

Our friend Quang had a birthday, so he invited Dann and I, along with loads of his other friends, to Nom Nom Restaurant. This is actually a place Dann and I, along with Quang and many other friends have been to many, many times, even when it previously was under another name. This is a traditional Vietnamese restaurant with a lot of authentic dishes. Vietnamese is my favorite type of food, so I am always excited to head over there.

Taking Care of a Care Bears Digital Pet

[Ad- gifted product] Robin is a huge fan of Care Bears and has had a Tamagotchi Uni that she has played through several times, so when we saw the Care Bears Digital Pet, she very much wanted to play with the purple one called Harmony Bear. There are a few different bear options, which is very fun as the back of these key chains look exactly like the bear itself. The shape itself is the perfect size to hold and display and the actual look of it – like the print – is so cute!

Birthday Dinner at Bang Bang Oriental Foodhall

For Dann’s Birthday dinner this year, he wanted to go along to Bang Bang Oriental Foodhall! We’ve previously gone a few times with friends, and had taken Kai, Amelia and Robin a few years back. As Kai has been on a health journey, and often is forced to have a lot of rest days at his other house or doesn’t have accurate calories counted for him, we don’t really go to places that would be frustrating or require a break. However, he’s been making his own food lately, so we felt now was the time!

Science Snippets The Human Body provides casual learning through flash cards

[Ad- gifted product] Now that back-to-school is in full swing, we often want to support the children’s learning with things at home. Amelia has a drumming kit that goes along with her schooling, Robin has some multiplication apps and songs, as she was struggling with them, Kai has an entire account for his GCSE practice that we got for him over the summer (though not as fun as the other two). Sometimes, having toys around the house that aren’t directly related to their currently learning will inspire them to learn more casually. Science Snippets The Human Body is a bundle of flash cards that answer how, what and why questions directly to do with the human body.
