Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks

Posted on by Jupiter

Dann and I absolutely have loved the last few cooking classes we attended at the Harlow Chinese School! This was the last cooking course for the school year, so we were excited to learn how to make some Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks – and there were some surprise side dishes that we got to have as well. This cooking course is really casual with a big focus on fun and exploring new foods. Sesame Prawn Toast and Chicken Satay Sticks are really classic party food in England, so it was fun to make our own.

Exploring HMV Harlow’s Care Bears Selection to find Bedtime Bear

[Ad- gifted product] Though Robin is a very brave girl and doesn’t need a bedtime night light, she does love new plushies and enjoys space themed items so much. When we went to HMV in Harlow to check out their Care Bear collection, she fell in love with the Bedtime Bear Glowing Belly Care Bears Plush, which is limited edition and only had two in stock. This bear is such a big upgrade from the Care Bears of my childhood!

Urban Limitz Trampoline Park at Harlow Leisure Zone

Robin recently went to a birthday party at Urban Limitz Trampoline Park at Harlow Leisure Zone, and then, of course, wanted to have her birthday there. We have done a lot of swimming at the Leisure Zone, but hadn’t tried Urban Limitz previously, so I went on the task of booking up her birthday. When it comes to booking a birthday party, it’s quite a task, as the person who plans parties only works a few days of the week and you need to call them, leave a message, then wait for them to call you back. There also is a huge amount of information you need to collect from each person attending the party, along with getting them all to fill out wavers and submit them to you.

We are a big outdoor family, who love adventure. So, when our local nature reserve announced their yearly Easter trail, we were excited to book up tickets and attend. Parndon Wood Nature Reserve doe shave a lot going on generally, from themed trails throughout the year, to crafting days, to night walks. We’ve previously been to their Christmas Trail last year, and often visit on the weekends, but hadn’t been to their Easter Trail.

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Buns, Soup and Pork

Posted on by Jupiter

After discovering the Harlow Chinese School‘s cooking courses earlier this year, we were anxiously awaiting the next course to attend. As they are aiming to do this each and every month, we were prepared for March. The cooking course this time had a big variety of food; stuffed buns, flower buns, corn and chicken soup, and char siu pork. Unlike the last time we attended, some of the food that was being made was demonstrated only this time, but we really did get our fill of knowledge and food.
