Practiced yoga for 90 mins with my sister while Ciaran started on dinner.
Here's a pic of my sisters cat making some yogic moves!
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!

Quick n'tasty
Stopped in to Lidl on the way home from work. As you know most Lidl's are very basic, but the Thomas Street one has a distinctly East Germany in the 1980's feel to it.
I bought fresh pasta (cooks in 3 mins), cooked and peeled prawns (shrimp for my American readers!) and a jar of sundried tomato pesto. Top with cheese and you have a tasty dinner in less than 5 minutes!

All Bran
I like to eat All Bran for breakfast however I find that it can hard to chew. It is a very dry twig like cereal. I think the best way to eat it is to pour boiling water on to the All Bran. It then reduces down to a sweet mash that is easily digested. I think it is also beneficial to drink a few glasses of water when eating the All Bran mash. It's a fibre full breakfast!
US Embassy
We had to visit the US Embassy to get a document notarized this morning. We needed to bring two witnesses along with us - thanks Amy and Barry. We thought we would be in and out in 5 minutes but it actually took about 45 mins in total. Amy had gone to work about 7.30am and then left to meet us at the embassy at 8.30am. She then returned to work afterwards - she works a short cycle away.
The US Embassy building is quite unique. Click here for a short YouTube video and some info.
Once you walk through the security gates you are on American soil. The other place this happens in Ireland is in Dublin Airport when you go through American Immigration.
