A review of WeeKett: The smart kettle

June 12, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A kettle that can be easily configured to heat water precisely, remotely and then stays warm is really handy. A “smart kettle” sounds like a luxury and perhaps pointless item, but it really isn’t! I’ve found the WeeKett to be a handy timesaver, and I’ve not even had it winter yet.

A review of Truffle Shuffle’s Pusheen doormat

September 14, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Is £15 good value or not for a doormat? It feels like the sort of item, like toilet seats; you never think about how much it might cost until that one time.

Reasons to follow @argonautbooks on social #426 - to attend author book signing effects. Here @justinleeandersonauthor reads from book two of the Eidyn Saga.
Festive fusion food? Mince Pie Samosa at @sabzi_2021 (newly enhanced with a 9 o'clock licence).
Birdy’s festive dinner @thebotanistuk! A wonderful time was had. Full review coming soon! #edinburghreviews #festivedinner #edinburgh #christmas #edinburghchristmas #diningout #eatingout
A charming pink and green cafe with a clear plant-based foodie focus. @heyplantbae is one of the surprisingly common jewels on Easter Road and is absolutely worth visiting. https://buff.ly/4a7qnfB
If you don't fancy the crowd intensity of the #christmasmarket or the prices then @iceangels_edin is maybe 10 minutes walk away, about a third cheaper for a third more (well, based on my thorough crêpe testing) and they have a #santa mailbox. There's even Christmas Trees for sale up the road. An alternative evening out.
Somewhere new for #sugarsunday as Girdy visits @marias_kitchen21 for a delicious Italian limoncello bread and butter pudding.
