Amy's Baking Company
Watch "Kitchen Nightmares Season 6 Episode 16 Part 2" on YouTube
Did you see Amy's Baking Company on Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares?? Based in Scottsdale Arizona this restaurant is beyond a joke.
Their appearance on the show has gone completely viral and is proving to be very bad publicity for them. You have got to wonder, what were they thinking?!
Eurovision update
Ireland got through to final of the Eurovision on Saturday!!!
I'm so happy about that. In the semi-final that they were in I thought that both Russia and Moldova had good entries.
We have a Communion Day celebration on Saturday afternoon but come the evening we will be glued to the Eurovision!!!

It's a good day!
It's a good day in Ireland! It's lovely and sunny and I was able to choose a birthday present for my Dad before work. I can call into my parents house on the way home from work with his present.
Oh and I got another smiley face this morning - that put me in a good mood!

Dillingers
My sister chose Dillingers again for dinner on Saturday night
(what a shock - not!). We went there about 6pm with no reservation and would you believe they were practically full. Luckily they were able to squeeze us in at a tiny overflow counter at the bottom of the restaurant.
Here's something that I only discovered during the week. "Mint" which was one of Dublin's few Michelin starred restaurants was in the spot where Dillingers is now. Ran by Chef Dylan McGrath, Mint was featured on RTE Television in a one off programme. There was a huge outcry about the treatment of the staff in the kitchen by the head chef.
But back to the other night, Amy had the chilli with a vodka and diet coke. Her chilli was good but she said the corn bread was too dry - perhaps it was a batch from the day before.
I had a special of 3 lamb patties on flatbread with a spicy sauce and also a yoghurt dressing. It was delicious along with a glass of merlot. Afterwards, we went to Birchalls for one drink. I should also mention that we saw Boyzone's former manager, Louis Walsh, in the closing down sale of "Laser Discs". We were home and back in the hot tub by 9pm.

Cup of Joe
I hold my hands up to the fact that I am addicted to Starbucks. It's my little treat to myself my quiet time in the middle of my hectic days.
I love Starbucks. I like the way they are consistent in how my drink is made. I like their free WiFi. I like their brownies.
I was so surprised when I found this website. From what I can see it is full of Starbucks baristas venting about their customers (or disgustomers as one forum poster calls them). Lol!
Below is a picture of Starbucks at the Wright Venue. Very funky!
