Welcome To Kawaii Box - July Edition

This is the first Kawaii Box I have received. Although it is for July, I just received it today. The box was slightly damaged but the contents were fine. I have opted for a three month subscription, making the boxes cost about £12 per month.

  1. DIY Candy Bracelet – this looks quite good, I can’t wait to try it!
  2. Squishy doughnut mirror – so cute…I want to eat it, and squish it, and look at my hair!

3. Korean Glitter Glue set – quite a big set, which I was surprised at. It is making me want to be more creative.
4. Caramel Popcorn pencil set – cute!!!
5. Rilakkuma note set – I love this bear! This folds out giving you an assortment of sticky notes and paper to write on. I like the head shaped ones!

6. Happy Alpaca keychain – I want to put this on my keys.
7. Mushroom plush charm – or I want to put this one on my keys…I can’t decide!
8. Flake Seal Stickers – pretty stickers, and there are quite a few in the box!

9. Link Toast Coaster – looking at this makes me smile
10. Pastel Pearl bracelet – I like the colours, and it is elastic rather than chain, so it will fit my (small) wrist well.
11. Cake eraser – too pretty to use!
When I opened this box, it made me very happy. There is so much included in this box, and I really love the items (some subscription boxes can be mixed). This is similar to Super Cute Box but this one is slightly cheaper. The only problem is the waiting – I subscribed in mid July and received the box near the end of August. These boxes do ship from abroad which can account for some of the wait. Overall, I do like this box and I am looking forward to next month’s!

Christmas is coming to Exeter!

Last week, I met up with my sister in Exeter. Unfortunately due to the recent bad weather we had a little train trouble but when we eventually arrived, the first thought that came to our mind was FOOD! We had a craving for Italian food and originally we wanted to go to Jamie’s Italian but it was fully booked. Nearby is Carluccio’s, which my sister said was quite good so we headed there. The front of Carluccio’s resembles a shop with cakes, biscuits and other Italian sweet treats which you can buy to takeaway. Behind this is a dining area – it doesn’t look particularly impressive or restaurant like. It looks like a cafe (indeed some people just ordered tea and coffee). The menu looks quite good – it displays Italian dishes with impressive ingredients. We opted for the Christmas menu – 2 courses for £17.99. I opted for the Risotto Festivo (a mushroom and spinach risotto with porcini oil and cheese wafers on top) and the Panettone with vanilla ice cream – I went for the more Christ...

Edinburgh - National Museum of Scotland

The National Museum of Scotland is a vast building filled with exhibitions and displays covering nature, history, art, literature and science. There are also sections dedicated to Scottish history and culture. There is so much to see, I could possibly see one spending the entire day here! Another bonus is that it is free admittance. We were only here for a few hours, so unfortunately we didn’t get to see everything. My particular favourites were seeing the displays on different world cultures, natural history and the environment and the pivotal role Scotland has played in popular culture and art through the ages.

Edinburgh - Eteaket Tea Room and Ibis Hotel

We arrived on a Thursday afternoon. Luckily for us, the sun was shining as we made our way to the Eteaket tea room on Frederick Street. Eteaket is famed for its teas, and they supply many local restaurants and other cafes. The tea room itself is quite spacious and full of customers, which shows how popular it is. As well as teas, light lunches and afternoon teas are also on the menu; something to suit any occasion. I opted for a high tea, with Royal Earl Grey tea. The high tea is priced at £8.45 and includes half a sandwich of your choice (I had Scottish Ham and Cheddar Cheese), scone (fruit or plain) and a mini cake (I think I had lemon cake). Tea is also included. Eteaket uses loose leaf tea, good quality and better tasting. The waitress also brough a mini timer. When the sands run out, the tea has brewed for long enough and is ready to drink after you remove the filter. What a beautiful cup of tea! The food was tasty and filling too, making it a great value high tea...
