Happy Friday, everyone! Did you have a nice week? I started the week in Amsterdam and ended it in Dublin. Sometimes sentences like that are still so strange to write, and I don’t take for granted how incredibly fortunate I am to travel around Europe while we’re in Ireland. The novelty just doesn’t wear off, no matter how long the line at passport control is!
Today I got to spend a few hours with my niece, one of the highlights of my week every week. We usually bake something, or rather I bake something while she bangs on pots and pans with wooden spoons. We take walks and look at birds and dogs, and one of us finally gets to shut out the busy world, both online and in person. It’s such a treat just to be Auntie Em (I have no illusions Emily is too many syllables for little ones, so I made it simple!).
This weekend involves a little recharging before another busy week next week. The evenings are getting longer, so I hope we’ll make it outside for big gulps of fresh air. What do you have planned for the weekend? I hope it’s full of adventure. See you Monday!

Weeks beginning in one country and ending in another sound lovely. Do enjoy those as often as you can for those of us who have greater distances between borders!
Hi Emily,
I’m off to Amsterdam soon-would you have any ‘must sees’? I loved looking at your Amsterdam instagram pics 🙂
Sounds like you had a wonderful week, Emily! I loved following your trip to Amsterdam via Instagram, many places that I recognized as well as lots of new ones. Good luck with the busy week, isn’t it lovely that Spring is finally here (more or less)?!
