Brunch at The Master Barista

Posted on July 21, 2025August 4, 2025 by Jupiter

Dann and I were looking to get a good, filling brunch within our town, so ended up at The Master Barista. We walk by this place often, seeing people eating outside. It’s attached to a jeweler shop, owned by the same people, which plays on the same designs as them. They have tons of seating in side and out, with an upstairs and downstairs, right by the bar counter. There are real Instagram vibes; interesting murals, flowers hanging from the ceiling, and neon lights! But, let’s get into the food.

Checking out St Clare Summer Fayre 2025

Posted on July 18, 2025August 4, 2025 by Jupiter

When it comes to fayres, England seems to have a lot of them! St Clare Summer Fayre is a yearly event, this one being the second we have gone too. Earlier last year, we got more involved with St Clare’s Hospice, which is what this fayre is put on for. Years ago, Dann’s sister lived out her final days at the hospice, which took very good care of her, so they do have a soft spot in our families heart. The fayre is aimed at raising money for the hospice, but also has stalls from other local charities, along with games and stands of fun stuff to do.

Panic Room Harlow – Sherlock Holmes Room

Posted on July 16, 2025July 29, 2025 by Jupiter

Last year, at Robin’s international evening at school, she won a raffle prize and picked vouchers for the Panic Room in Harlow. As it’s been a year since that’s happened, we finally got around to using the vouchers, as this weekend was extremely rainy and we needed a good indoor activity. We’ve done several escape rooms previously, which is probably why Robin picked this voucher among all of the toys that were on the table. Panic Room Harlow has a few different rooms to pick from, but Robin chose the Sherlocks Holmes room, primarily because she’s a detective and he’s a detective, so it sounded like a great fit.

Lunch at Rainbow and Dove Pub

Posted on July 14, 2025July 25, 2025 by Jupiter

When looking for a place for a lunch with one of our friends, Dann came across the Rainbow and Dove Pub. At the moment, we are trying to go to every place to eat in all of Harlow this year, to see what the best places are. Neither Dann and I ever really pick pubs – it’s just something we aren’t that curious about, so it’s been fun to try new pubs and see what they are like. The Rainbow and Dove is an award winning independent pub with an ever-changing menu. They have a wine of the month, burger of the month, and tons of daily specials that are dependent on the produce that the pub has received, as well as pub classics that are always there.

Bouquet Cupcake Class with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Posted on July 10, 2025July 23, 2025 by Jupiter

Each month, Amelia and I take a little mother-daughter time going to a cupcake class, to decorate a bunch of cupcakes. We have been going for quite some time now, but we still find a class we haven’t taken each month to enjoy, primarily due to the new classes that Sweet Designs by Jennie is always coming up with! The bouquet cupcake course was one that Amelia was particularly interested in, as we primarily have done classes that had a lot of fondant work, and this class was all about piping!
