[Ad- gifted product] Robin has always been interested in reading and in magical stories! Efua’s Magic Stew is a new children’s storybook, which focuses on a young child who doesn’t want to eat dinner. Instead, she wants to play! That is, until she eats magic stew, which transports her to a new, magical place full of stories and interesting characters. Efua’s Magic Stew has a picture for every story, which are beautifully designed and bring a lot of mystery and wonder to the story.
We drive by CoHo in Harlow often. It looks very similar in name and font to a French food chain, so we hadn’t taken the time to stop there, but this time we took the chance. On Saturday, it’s required that you pre-book, as they are super busy, so we went first thing on Sunday for lunch before heading out on a trip out of the country. The place is pretty simple and elegant in decoration – there are white tablecloths, menus clearly printed for that specific day, the staff is really attentive. It’s a very expensive feeling place to eat. CoHo is right on the river, and we even saw some swans swimming there before we entered.
[Ad- gifted product] Dann and I travel a lot. There is something about exploring new places, enjoying new food, and just doing new things that always has captivated me. I want to do everything and experience everywhere, which is why we often plan trips and take advantage of the extra day we have set up around a work event. Often we travel so much that we lose track of where we have been and what we’ve done, which is part of the reason why I write about so many of our experiences. We do have a giant scratch off map, where we scratch off the places we’ve been together, but having something smaller that we can carry around is such an inviting idea. That’s where Joruneys Made came in.
Dann and I wanted to go out to lunch, so we decided to check out Belle Vie Cafe, which is right by the local train station! Belle Vie Cafe has a breakfast menu with tons of options, as well as sandwiches, burgers, a small kids menu and a handful of things under the ‘mains’ section as well. Dann and I were looking for a smaller lunch, so Dann went for a breakfast, I went for a mains, and we got some drinks and mozzarella sticks as well.
