The Veggie Cookbook – Pickled Cucumber and Tofu Glass Noodle Salad Recipe

Posted on April 10, 2024April 23, 2024 by Jupiter

*AD – the items in this review was gifted to our family for this post. All opinions, as always, are our own.

We are huge fans of Higgidy and have tried out a bunch of their foods previously, so when they sent us The Veggie Cookbook, we were pretty excited to see what foods they had instore for us. This cookbook’s goal is to get people to experiment more with veggies and cook with more veggies. These meals are all vegetarian, but some play more as side dishes and others could easily have your swapping out tofu for chicken, for example. It’s a really flexible book that has a bunch of staples, bigger vegetable meals, and more.

As you probably know, Robin really loves reading. We are always going through new books as she spends quite some time reading in the evenings. Maya & Robobo is her newest finished book on her reading list! This book is about a young girl, seemingly her age, and robot who appears in her room, to learn from her. Robin is 7, turning 8 this year, and this book is designed for children age 7 to 12 years old. Maya & Robobo has a few touches towards real life situations that many children actually have experienced, especially around those ages.

Robin is a big reader in our household, as it’s one of her main hobbies. She even recently got to read to an anxiety dog at our local library, which really ties in well with Joe and Dusty Save the World – a children’s book all about a young boy with his own anxiety dog to guide him through life. As Robin is at an age where she can read on her own, I gave her the book and let her tell me about it whenever she was done with her daily reading.

Reading to a Dog at Essex Libraries!

Posted on January 5, 2024February 7, 2024 by Jupiter

Robin is a big fan of reading and libraries! Our local library in the main town does a lot of different events throughout the year; reading challenges, read-a-longs, and even reading to a dog! Reading to a dog is not something I had ever heard of before, so when Robin read a sign about the program and was super interested in it, we decided to book it up.

Tom Gates: Happy to Help (eventually) new book and clothing line

World Book Day is right around the corner, so it’s a great time to get your child into reading and find new books for them to read! Robin always gleefully announces her favourite hobby is reading, so getting her new books is something we are constantly doing. As she is six turning seven this year, she is in a weird place where she wants to read chapter books, but if they don’t have any sort of drawings, she gets bored with them quickly! The series of Tom Gates books are perfect for her, as they have little drawings on each page, funny fonts, and are just very engaging!
