We have been to Cammas Hall for Halloween, bonfire night, and fruit picking over the years; they are just always running different themed activities, providing for a fun and easy family day out. This year, we heard about their Easter Trails and wanted to check them out! The trail itself can be pre-booked, with their little check-in booth at the start, They’ve got decorations, photo areas, and characters dotted around, but first we went to grab some tulips.
If you have been reading along for a while, you’ll know Amelia and I go to a little mother-daughter cupcake decorating class each and every month. Last month, we went towards the very end, to attend one of the wreath cupcake classes. Sweet Designs by Jennie doesn’t do too many wreaths – they are sort of bigger classes – though she has mentioned she will be designing and adding more, which is exciting. The wreath cupcake courses have us decorating 10 cupcakes each, instead of 6, which is a lot of fun!

When it comes to trying out new places to eat, Dann and I are always excited! At the very back of the town centre in Harlow, Brinchi Steakhouse has opened in this year. This isn’t the most pleasant part of the town, with parking being primarily at the other side towards the Water Gardens, but it’s well worth the walk! Brinchi Steakhouse has an interesting menu, containing pasta, pizza, Turkish food and of course, lots of steak and beef-based dishes. Dann and I went on a random Sunday for a massive lunch, where the staff were very welcoming.
As parents, we like to encourage all of our children’s interests. For Robin, that’s primarily gymnastics and playing guitar. For Kai it’s going to the gym and playing DnD, for Amelia, it’s arts and drumming. So, when our local art gallery announced the Harlow Open at Gibberd Gallery last year, we encouraged Amelia to pick out a photo and enter, though she didn’t make it in, she was mentioned and felt very proud of that! This year, she and Robin decided to do a painting.

Amelia and I go to a cupcake decorating class every month, as a bit of mother-daughter time, and this month Sweet Designs by Jennie had a special Valentine’s Day class, the day before Valentine’s Day, so you can make a half dozen cupcakes to share with your loved one. This class, unlike a lot of the others by Sweet Designs by Jennie, only comes around once a year, so we were both pretty excited as we hadn’t made these before.
