This was our second year helping out with the Potter Street Fete, which this year was dedicated to Micky T, who was from Potter Street and had passed in the last year. This fete is an extremely local event, to Harlow, where members of the local community come together to hang out, enjoy the sunshine, and just be together. It’s lovely, full of community spirit, and put on by a bunch of locals who like seeing everyone enjoying the sun.

[Ad- gifted experience] The Essex Summer Fest is a weekend festival, aimed at families, where you can enjoy music, fairground rides, a selection of different booths selling items, food stands, and several different stages full of activities and music! To make things even better, the Essex Summer Fest is organised by the local charity Mind in Havering, Barking and Dagenham – which is a charity all around mental health, and the money raised by this fest goes towards helping locals who are struggling with their mental health. It’s a very fun time for a very good cause.
We have gone to a few of the different Butlin’s location, but find that Butlins Skegness is our absolute favorite. Robin has been asking to go to Butlin’s for quite some time, so when we had a bit of a long weekend at the end of the May Half Term, we went along! Butlin’s is a holiday park, where you can get a day pass or stay in their various types of accommodation, eating at the resort and doing a bunch of the activities they have to offer. We are a big swimming household, so planned on spending a lot of our time in the swimming area, which was under construction last time we were there.

Every year we go to Cammas Hall for strawberries! This time of year, Robin is always into peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, we always are craving fruit, and the fruit itself is ripe for the picking. Cammas Hall is our local farm, which we attend throughout the year for pumpkin picking and other seasonal events, so we were excited to head out and see how the strawberries have done this year.

Every month Amelia and I go along to a cupcake class hosted by Sweet Designs by Jennie, who keeps coming up with new designs! Amelia and I really love having a little time once a month, that’s just the two of us! But, for this class (and the next one) Amelia has invited along some friends as it’s nearing the end of the school year and we have such a packed summer. (Plus, Jennie is taking the summer off, so we wanted to get some extra cupcake designing in.) The Taste of Asian Cupcake Class is a new one, with designs all around slightly Asian themes.
