This week, we have tried some new foods and some old favorites in our family. Kai was really interested in cooking a few of the recipes and even picked one out! Amelia and Robin had a lot of activities they were doing and felt less interested in cooking, which is always OK. It was also a week where we ate out for Dann’s birthday! Eating out from time to time is always a good break from making food.

[Ad- gifted product]Â Summertime is here, so it’s time to try a bunch of different snacks that are easy to bring around with us and picnic with! Munchy Seeds is a very new type of snack for our family – as it’s a seed mix. To be honest, I only really eat seeds on bagels, as apart of the bagel, so having a seed mix as a sort of snack mix sounded really fun! The Munchy Seeds mix have primarily pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, which are flavored depending on the pack.

When the weather is looking good, you often want to go out and enjoy it! We are a bit adventure family at the Hadley-Sullivan household, so we have gone to so many different parks, splash parks, and outdoor areas all year around, to explore what they have to offer. Since we have been to so many places over the years, we decided to put together a bunch of the best free play parks in Essex to visit with your children, to better make use of the summer holiday and sunshine! There are a few play park-adjacent places in this list, but they go well with the getting outdoor and playing activities!
Another batch of meals has been made, as every single day we do eat dinner! As it’s been nice, warm weather out here lately, so we have been having meals that are a bit lighter and take less cooking to do then others. Some of this weeks foods came as suggestions from Robin and Amelia, while others were classics that we felt like having. Amelia was the biggest kitchen helper this week and did a lot of cooking with me, which was super fun! Anyway, let’s get into some meal inspiration for the week!

When it comes to eating lunch, Dann and I are not big sandwich fans generally, if I am honest. Though, we were wanting something light and not too hot when the weather was wonderful, so we took at chance at The Fizzy Tarte – a gastro-pub looking place, which serves sandwiches, charcuterie boards and craft cocktails! The Fizzy Tarte does more than just lunch and brunch. They have master classes in cocktail making and afternoon tea if that’s your thing too.
