July’s Degustabox arrived! With a summer theme I was quick to jump in and discover what little goodies we had to enjoy. The first item I picked out was the Blossom Hill Spritz, I am prone to a little Spritz from time to time so as you can image this box was already a hit. I hadn’t tried this one before but the raspberry and blackcurrant flavours worked so nicely together. It’s a proper summer time sat in the garden kind of drink! The kids were quick to spot the Rowntrees randoms they love these so they didn’t waste any…

I was absolutely gutted to miss seeing the new Beauty & The Beast film on the big screen when it came out. After one too many failed attempts of making plans to see it with my friends I resided myself to waiting for the DVD to come out. Guess what it’s arrived!!!! I was so excited to be asked if I would like to receive a copy of the DVD and the new Belle toddler doll for the girls to play with.
