Pumpkin Picking at Hatter’s Farm

Posted on October 13, 2025October 12, 2025 by Jupiter

Exploring pumpkin patches is really the perfect Autumn activity! We go to a few pumpkin patches in Essex, to see how they are. This time, we went back to Hatter’s Farm, which is one of the ones we have visited yearly since they opened, to see how things changed! Hatter’s Farm has both day and night options when it comes to visiting their farm. Their night options make the entire patch full of glowing, neon paint, which does sound like an adventure. We went during the daytime, to pick some pumpkins, eat some food, and explore the corn maze.

Seeing Chocolate Bars Made at Tony’s Chocolonely Superstore

Tony’s Chocolonely Superstore it tucked away in a side alley, towards the centre of Amsterdam, with a little sign pointing you into the doorway.

When going in, you are presented with a video that talks about the superstore and mission behind Tony’s Chocolate, which is ethically sourced. The company itself works hard at being at ending the exploitation that happens within the chocolate industry, while putting human rights at the centre of their business. It’s been a brand that I have been aware of for quite some time!

Novo Lounge Quiz Night – Great Evening Activity

Posted on October 2, 2025September 27, 2025 by Jupiter

Some evenings, having a local event to head over to makes a lot of sense for us. We are a couple that enjoys going out, so we have headed to Novo Lounge for their Quiz Night a few times now! Previously, we did check out a bunch of the tapas at Novo Lounge, but after attending like three quiz nights, decided it was time to right them up! At our local Novo Lounge in Harlow, our quiz master is a fantastic guy who is always full of energy. The entry price is £3 cash, which goes to a charity, and the quiz itself is set by Redtooth, and presented by Novo Lounge themselves.
