Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Buns, Soup and Pork

Posted on March 8, 2024August 19, 2024 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.

AirHop Chelmsford – Bouncing to great heights

Posted on February 26, 2024July 8, 2024 by Jupiter

Previously, we have attended JumpStreet in Chelmsford, to go on the rock walls. The location is sort of divided into three sections; rock walls, soft play, and a trampoline park. Now that JumpStreet has been rebranded to AirHop, we felt it was fitting to check out more of the new features, which are all in the trampoline section of the place. This area has a lot to do; trampolines, arcade-style games involving jumping, dodge ball, massive slides, knock-off-platform areas, and a soccer arena type place with targets!

Building Dens at Parndon Wood Nature Reserve

Posted on February 5, 2024July 8, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Whenever the weather takes a turn for the better, we find ourselves going to our local nature reserve. Parndon Wood Nature Reserve not only has a bunch of seasonal activities, like Forest Bingo, Photography Contests, and Nature Trails filled with stuffed animals to spot, but they always have a few areas that are well set up for people to explore. If you want more of a quiet walk, you can go to one of the many bird-viewing platforms to see some birds dotted about. If you are full of energy (or have children that are full of energy) you might want to check out the den building area.

Lunch at Yuce’s Mediterranean Restaurant

Posted on January 29, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

We had a special lunch date with Robin, as she didn’t have school and her siblings did. These sorts of days are so special – one on one time is rare with such a big, adventurous family. When we asked Robin where she wanted to go, she wanted to try out Yuce’s, as it looks so fancy from the outside and she had never been. Dann and I had gone a couple of times, and were excited to try new food with her. Yuce’s is a Mediterranean Restaurant that has a nightclub above it. They have an expansive cocktail menu, and some great lunch deals as well.

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Wontons

Posted on January 22, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

Dann and I love going to cooking courses, though we haven’t been to enough thus far. This year, we are trying to attend more local events and be a bigger part of our local community. With that in mind, and after seeing the Harlow Chinese School advertise their Wonton Cooking Course, we were excited to see what this was all about.
