Chairman's Diary: Arklow Visit 30/07/2011

Chairman's Diary: Arklow Visit 30/07/2011: "Annie, Gertie and Vicky Today I visited Arklow Country Market in Co Wicklow with the Regional Rep Pamela Henry. It is held in the Pigeo..."

I am completely mortified by the picture. Urrgh, i had no idea that the lady was coming

Jam Making

the past few days have been consumed with making "cherry plum" jam.
I picked the fruit thinking it was cherries only to discover cherry piting tools are impossible to get in ireland.
The i realized the fruit wasnt cherries. DISASTER.

I found a gread recipe for californian cherry plum jam and its working great for me.

Look out for my "name the lamp" competition starting soon here.

Love and light

Something New inspired by simplicity

I was asked to come up with something simple but that isnt so easy in my colourful life.
Ok so i have one simple one i think.

I hope you like these, they have been sitting on my shelf waiting to be picked for some time now.

Fresh Monday

After a busy weekend myself and my wee man spent some quality time in the pool this morning , then it was back to the grind this evening. Grandad as ever was most helpfull so i got a good bit done. I have two finished products with preview pictures. It was too dark to get the proper photo's taken. They will go live tomorrow night on my etsy shop.

Laragh market was wonderfull yesterday. we had a lovely neighbour called lizzy and another neighbour with mats 3 for 1 euro. All in all it was a sleepy sunny day spent under the canvas.
