Tea Time We baked scones (a UK/Irish thing, recipe here) and served it with Irish Breakfast Tea. Scones are notoriously difficult to cook but they turned out tasty, especially with lots of Kerrygold Irish Butter and Orange Marmalade (Pat's preference) or Nutella, which I tried for the first time in Ireland many years ago.
Biking to a garden Where better to visit than a green, green place. This rose garden is less than eight blocks from our house.

"i have lived through many ages/ ran with salmon, deer, and wolf./ i have seen the northmen invading ireland/ destroy all in search of gold./ i have seen suffering in the darkness/ yet i have seen beauty thrive in the most fragile places."
Is "Kells" part of your Oscar pre-viewing packet? Goodness knows when Netflix will have it (it's been snoozing in my saved queue for a while).
ReplyDeleteYou and spry Pat should Netflix the new Wallace and Gromit ("A Matter of Loaf and Death") so you can see the episode of "Shaun the Sheep" that's appended to it. My lil sheep and I were humming its theme song all weekend.
And sorry about your pee pee stew. At least it doesn't look urinal, but I suppose its looking like piss would be preferable to its tasting like it.
