Chocolate and Sweet Release
January 2, 2013

Ballymaloe and All Things Cork
October 9, 2012
I dream of it everyday at night before I pray Ballymaloe on my toast or crumpets, bacon the most This relish a tomato delight made by heaven’s own Only angel’s can make This taste on which is great It takes me away To Cork my happy place Kinsale where I belong and sing a happy […]

Hungry Henry

Eyes big as pies He looks to the skies ”Thank you God he says Hungry Henry’s happy today!” He devours what he sees Rubs his belly then drinks tea Settles down for a little nap The cat purrs away on his lap A growl wakes him from his sleep It must have been all them […]
