Sweets Direct – Pick and Mix online

 [Ad- gifted products] Now, where I come from in America, I do not think Pick and Mix is a thing. The first time I ever did pick and mix was with Dann, in Sweden! I do have a big sweet tooth, especially for gummies, and so was excited to pick a giant 2kg bag of sweets from Sweets Direct, to be mailed to our house. They do have smaller (and larger!) bags to pick from, allowing you to decide exactly how much you want.

The Creepy Cute Love Coloring Book – Great for Teens and Adults

[Ad- gifted product] From the creators of the Creepy Cute Sticker Book, there is now The Creepy Cute Love Coloring Book, which has a bunch of adorable-yet-creepy designs within it. These designs are all sort of a love theme, kind of like a creepy, cute, romantic type book. Think ghostly chocolate covered strawberries, zombie teddies, love potions or boxes of deadly chocolate.

Meeting the Highland Cows at Redburn Cafe & Gift Shop

When we were staying with Abbey Holidays at The Highland Club in Loch Ness, we really wanted to see the Highland Cows. By “we”, I do primarily mean me, I think. Growing up, I had a cow. I lived in the countryside. I really do like cows! And these long-haired cows with their horns were very new to me, so I really wanted to see one and pet one in real life. I was pretty confused that we didn’t see any driving up to Loch Ness, so when we set out to the Redburn Cafe & Gift Shop, as they have cows on their property, I was very excited.

Leveling Up Date Night with So Wood Cheese Board

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to snacking and having lunches, Dann and I both really enjoy a snacky board. Often, we will just pull a bunch of random meats, cheeses, and fruits out of our fridge and eat them out of the various containers, instead of making proper plates of food. Sometimes, however, Dann and I like to make things a little fancy. So Wood round cheese board is the perfect way to level up your lunch and make it feel like a real date.

Garden Heist – All about what you can see

[Ad- gifted products] We play a lot of board games and often find mechanics we have previously seen, done in new ways. This week, when we went to Geek Retreat to play Garden Heist, we didn’t realize how different and unique this game would be! The setup itself already feels very different – using the bottom of the box, you basically set up a little house with a little window. Then, outside the house, there is a bunch of trees and garden items placed in a specific order. Meeples start off at the other end of the board, opposite of the house, so that you can see the garden from the house window.
