Around These Parts

Why hello! That was officially the longest unexpected blog hiatus I’ve accidentally ever taken. Returning to Dublin from the States after a month away, giving too many walking tours in too few days, trips to Limerick and Cork in the same week, an epic family wedding and a weekend of babysitting duties just knocked me right off schedule. There wasn’t a smidge of extra time and for a whole week I didn’t even open my computer!

But the excitement is over and things are settling down for the last few weeks of summer. In the last few days, the air has changed and it has started to feel like fall. Michael and I woke up this morning and realized we had to get groceries for the first time in weeks – and actually cook for the first time since June! Reality check! So now there’s soup simmering on the stove and salads about to get whipped into shape. Did I mention we’ve eaten approximately eighteen servings of leftover wedding cake in the last week? That’s probably a conservative estimate. Eighteen maybe in the last two days.

We’re detoxing and resting and getting our bodies ready for another busy school year to start. I’d love to hear what you’re up to as summer winds down. We’re hoping to knock through the last of our summer bucket list before the summer sun is really finished.

Until tomorrow! xx
