Happy Monday!
I’m home sick from work today, but I wanted to share a few bits of my weekend. It was busy, productive and sunny! Sun in Dublin is amazing, but I also find it a little stressful. Since sunny days are a little rare, they make me need to be out in it for every, single minute. This weekend I found myself practically counting the freckles on my nose – watching the proof that I’m properly soaking up the vitamin D. (Don’t worry, Dad, I was wearing sunscreen!)
I spent Saturday afternoon in the City Centre, had lunch at the Temple Bar Market (the most seriously veggie-packed quiche) and then took a walking tour. I’ll share more about that over on Poppytalk soon.
{Have you ever seen carrots in a quiche? Those roasted veggies were so yummy.}
{check out those glasses!}
Last night, after a long walk, a little cake baking and some cleaning for my parents’ visit this week, we had our first barbecue of the season! We sat for a few hours under Michael’s parents’ gazebo, watching the sun set. I’d like to order a few more of those days, please!
How was your weekend? Any excitement?

It looks like you had a fantastic weekend! And those scones look so delicious. I spent my weekend running around NYC — it was awesome, but NYC always is.
Ah that makes me so excited to get there in May! It’s been so long since I’ve visited the big CITY!
Have you tried the brownies from the bakery stall with the yellow cover in the temple bar market? They have this thick coating of chocolate on top, and the edges are crumbly… I can’t go through the market without getting one, it’s dangerous 😉
Oh no! I haven’t had those, but I will definitely be making a trip for one as soon as I can! They sound amazing and totally addictive! 🙂
