Level up your cooking with All Things Butter 

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to elevating your cooking, this can easily be done through seasoning or adding a little something different to your cooking. All Things Butter do a range of flavored butters – butters with other things added into it, which can change the taste and flavor of the dishes that you are making. We got the chance to try two of the different flavors, Garlic & Herb and Chili. Obviously these are butters, so you can use them in anything that you would normally put butter into. All Things Butter are committed to British farming, with their farm set in Somerset, traditionally batch churning and hand salting the butter itself, making it a gourmet butter.

Lizi’s Granola – Perfect for Crumbles

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to granola, we often eat them as parfaits with yogurt, a staple easy breakfast for our household. There are actually a lot of different granolas on the market; some with fruit pieces, some with seeds, some that are quite plain in flavor too. Lizi’s Low Sugar Nuts & Seeds Granola is an actually a pretty fun granola, despite saying low in sugar, with a bunch of seeds and nuts throughout it. Robin had a fun time picking out the different seeds and trying them individually, as she hadn’t had seeds before! We also tried their Maple and Pecan, which has my favorite nuts in them and a nice amount of sweetness.

Lots of Tapas at Novo Lounge

Dann and I actually went to Novo Lounge when it first launched, taking our children with us. We ended up having a bit of a chaotic time, particularly due to some picky eaters who weren’t really sure what they were ordering before it arrived. We’ve been back a few times to grab drinks during their happy hour, but decided to try them out again for dinner, with a friend of ours, after an evening of playing Pokemon Go. Novo Lounge has a lot of community activities going on; drag bingo, board game nights, and on this particular night there was salsa practice happening! It’s great to see a venue become such a staple in the community and fun that they run so many events.

Windy Knickers – Silly Children’s Toy

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to silly toys, we have tried our fair share. However, Windy Knickers is probably the silliest we have seen in a while! It takes a really average, every day concept of hanging up laundry and makes it into a fun, spinning around, silly little game. The gameplay itself and set up is extremely easy and if your children are anything like ours, they’ll end up finding other ways to have fun with the toy as well.

Polar Panic – Quick Matching Fun

[Ad- gifted product] Quick to carry around tabletop games are always ones that I find are perfect for the afterschool time between school ending and Kai’s DnD starting. We all bundle into our local Geek Retreat, grab a few milkshakes or sodas, and sit down to play games. Polar Panic was the latest on our list; the entire card game fits in a little tin, with the instructions in the lid, making it ideal for carry around with us!
