Wreath no. 3

Here's the third wreath I made to mark Autumn.  It's for my older sister - she loved the one I had made for my mother.  

Here it is hanging in her front door 

Post Bikram Breakfast

After 6.30am Bikram (eek!) this morning we went to M&S for breakfast.

Half price breakfast - what a bargain!

Marks & Spencer's Restaurant in Grafton Street is bright and airy.  I took a picture of this side of the restaurant because there was no one in it - it was full on the other side!

Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs in a bagel

Pancakes with creme fraiche and berry compote

Sourdough toast 

Eggs Benedict 

Such value!

Inspiring Ideas

Inspiring Ideas in Blanchardstown is open until 9pm on Wednesday and to incentivize a visit they are giving 10% off craft supplies between 6-9pm.

The Pumpkin Spice Latte is back in Starbucks for the Autumn, with the tag line "Fall in love again"

No guns in Starbucks

As reported world wide and in the Irish Times Starbucks is asking their US customers to leave their guns at home.  

Coming from Ireland where we do not have a gun culture like the States (our police force are not armed) I find this request quite alien.  But in the USA, citizens have the right to bear arms, as written in their constitution.

Wreath time!

My mother loved her new autumn wreath for her front door!  

She will hang it on her newly painted powder blue front door.

Do you have a wreath on your front door?

And here it is hanging on her front door:

Bargain Alert

Half price breakfast in Marks & Spencer's, Grafton Street all this week.

I will be partaking in breakfast this Friday after 6.30am Bikram Yoga Class! (Wish me luck - it's the first time I've done yoga this early)

A brownie day

I'm on my coffee break, it's lashing rain - it's a brownie day!

I will have to brave the rain to buy fake flowers for my wreath making, later today.
