[Ad- gifted product] The beginning of the year is often all about trying new things and improving your health. I cut out all at-home soda over a year ago, but still have an energy drink every other day. I just like feeling more awake and tend to drink one all throughout the day. When I heard about Zooz Drink being an energy drink with no sugar, lots of healthy ingredients, and no fuss, I wanted to give it a go!

[Ad- gifted product] As the resident watch expert at jupiterhadley.com I was provided the Mozsly Watch Winder to review. For those of you who may not be familiar with watch winders, or their purpose, they are devices used to keep an automatic watch wound. Before I get into why you might want to buy one of these devices, allow me to give you a quick crash course in watches. There are three main types of watch movements; quartz – the most common type, found commonly in low-end and more affordable watches, a movement typically powered by a cell battery. These watches keep excellent time and for the purpose of timekeeping, are superior to mechanical watches. Next we have hand-wound. These watches are powered by a coiled spring that the wearer must regularly wind up by turning the crown of the watch. Finally we have the automatic movement. Similarly to hand-wound, these watches are powered by a mainspring, but instead of having to wind the watch by hand it winds itself using a weighted rotor that spins as you move around during the day.
[Ad- gifted product] Some Monday’s we are a bit pressed for time. That’s when smaller, ice-breaker style tabletop games come out and are perfect to play. That’s Not a Hat is all about bluffing what card you are currently moving to another person. We played as a family, with Dann, Amelia and Robin joining in while Kai played DND at our local Geek Retreat. The game itself was very easy to pick up and start with, which was ideal for our group.

A friend of mine said I should go to The Toaster and try their hashbrown nachos when I spoke about making weird nacho food for Kai. I had not heard of the place and though I am not a big brunch or breakfast fan, while Kai and Robin were at school (and Amelia still on holiday from her school), we wanted to go out somewhere new. The Toaster came to mind, so we all headed out to see what the food was going to be like. To our surprise, it was probably the best brunch I am ever going to have in my life.
[Ad- gifted experience] While in Helsinki for a work event, we went out to a celebratory dinner to celebrate the end of a fantastic event and a promotion I got within the company! Picking something that sounded and felt like it could be British, we ended up at The Cock. This restaurant is very welcome to people just visiting the area and serves a fun menu with a lot of familiar and classic food. Dann and I both got different starters and mains, for once, off of a set menu that the entire team ordered from. The venue felt cozy, like an upscale pub, and the staff were fantastic.
