Setting up Gmail on new devices makes me feel physically ill. Heaven forbid I am starting over and donโt have other devices to verify on. Seriously feel like Iโll throw up after all that. No one email me ever again, letโs switch to carrier pigeon and postcards.
I think 15 years ago was the one time I was able to attend Bloom. It was so beautiful.
I cannot unsee this. Thankfully, Iโve never smelled it because I hear that too is unforgettable.
Have you been to Lishh Cafe & Catering in Cork City before? I went for lunch and loved it.
Beautiful! Love it. Long overdue for another visit. I just got three Big Daddy Hostas which are supposedly slug resistant, but very much not.
Stunning.
Thank you ๐ฅฐ It was a fun video to make because your Cork shop has a stellar selection.
Oh wow!
My 6th grade science fair project was testing the water in a section of Rock Creek where we played in our neighborhood. E. Coli and so many nasty things found. Didnโt win the fair, but the families knew it wasnโt safe after that (1985). We were lucky we didnโt swim in it, just explore.
The big reveal! I went with the Jigsaw linen dress and Zara long dress blazer. Reminder that the other dresses shown in my last video AND MORE STYLES are available at @oxfamireland.bsky.social shop on Cook Street.
Needed a dress for my childโs communion and a separate celebration so went to @oxfamireland.bsky.social on Cook Street here in Cork City and tried on these beauties. Which do you think I bought? #sustainablefashion
I have no doubt about that.
Do you know of any large old Elms in Ireland?
We're looking for really big old elms which have survived elm disease, despite it spreading everywhere across the country.
Please visit our dedicated website and let us know about any veteran elms out there!

Thatโs how I feel about walking everywhere. Maybe it can take a smidge longer if I hit the pedestrian crossings at the wrong times, but even then itโs a minute or two difference.
Spent the grand stretch today organising my greenhouse, repotting plants to larger pots, and making sure they are tucked in & cosy in case of a late frost. Cannot wait to put them in the ground in a couple weeks. In the meantime, theyโll feel like theyโre in the Canaries in there. ๐๏ธ
Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen
Sounds lovely. We have sweet peas in our garden but donโt have a scent. But are so beautiful. I keep saying sill get an archway for them to climb on. Maybe this is the year. Youโre inspiring me!
I was out in the garden today too. Nothing planted yet, but beds prepped. Small victories.
Happy birthday ๐
So cosy and colour-coordinated! And the tree pattern! And the stitch markers!
A huge thank you to @brunchcork.bsky.social, a reader from Cork in Ireland, who shared this wonderful photo of their knitting while listening to my latest audiobook.

Spring in Ireland. As opposed to Irish Spring, which makes people think of the bar of soap whose shavings are handy as a garden pest deterrent. #ireland
It really is!
I have his book and didnโt realize he was on here. Cheers!

I donโt think anyone โgotโ my April Foolโs joke. Back to Brunch Cork tomorrow. If you want the full experience check out my IG with the crunchy food highlights and crisp sambo reel. www.instagram.com/brunchcork
A little rebrand that has been in the works for awhile now, but todayโs the big reveal. What do you think?
Our content will only focus on crunchy foods from now on. Seeking sponsorship from crisp companies and dentists specializing in TMJ. DMs are open.
It was rough to get breakfast in bed at 8am. I told them the pop tarts put me in a food coma and I needed a nap, then slept until 1pm. New achievement unlocked.
