There's talk of snow next weekend....
I'm warming up with soup from the Betelnut.
Today it is tomato & lentil. Yum!
This blog was originally started to track our progress as we regenerated a derelict Victorian house in Dublin. We turned an old crumbling ruin in to our dream house! If you wish to read through the trials and tribulations of the house build it is best to start at the oldest blog post and read in date order. The blog then evolved in to being all about my life in Dublin, Ireland and then life in Malaga, Spain with artist "PIGSY" and now back in Dublin I hope you enjoy reading it!

Here's a selection of liquors that are available in the LPA Bar!
I got the bar towel in "Cocktails Key West" in Key West, Florida.
It's soup weather! Very cold here in Ireland with snow and sleet expected on Sunday.
Next door to my work is the Draiocht Arts Centre with a theatre and gallery. Betelnut Cafe is based in the Draiocht and the do delicious homemade soups. Today they have Butternut squash with coconut & lime (I chose this one!) or Leek, potato & rosemary. Delicious!
New Coach handbag - it made from such lovely soft leather.....and it is orange!!
Bought it in the Coach Outlet Store in Key West. Coach only arrived in Ireland about a year ago (they have a concession in Arnotts Department Store) so are quite in vogue here.
I love this bag because I think it is a little bit funky because of the colour but still very classic because of the style.
Took all the ornaments off my tree and packed them away. I got these really handy decoration storage boxes in Dunne Stores just before Christmas. They are so convenient - I wish I bought another one.
Next year if we are going away for Christmas I may not put up a tree......I'll see!
