I just thought I do a quick post updating you all on some more recent press bits and bobs, in case you're interested!
Here are two press shots that were featured in the Advertiser and the City Tribune last week, from the opening of The Frock and Crock Sale, a charity event that was held in Lynches Cafe this Friday past.
I was more than happy to be involved with the press shots, especially since friend and fellow blogger Sinead Lally was organising it, and its always nice to help a friend out.
This week I was also featured in the Advertiser for their "Proust Questionnaire" feature. The questionnaire one of my favourite pieces of the paper and so I was delighted to be asked to participate. Here is the interview if you're interested, since its nigh impossible to read from the photo!

Climbing Trees! Or a nice bun.
Which historical figure do you most identify with?
Genghis Khan... Now there's someone I'd love to have a pint with!

I have to cheat and say 3: my sisters. They're a force to be reckoned with, and I've learned prettymuch everything I know from them.

My impatience!
What is your greatest extravagance?
Clothes. I'd happily be broke and fabulous.

Rarely, and very poorly at that. Im a terrible liar, you can read it all over my face.
Which living person do you most despise?
I don't despise anyone, and am happy the fact. I save my energy for better things!
What or who is the greatest love of your life?
My french boyfriend Estoban. We met on holidays when I was 7. He had a blonde bowl-cut and dungarees. He had no English, nor I French, but he shared his bonbons with me. How I still pine for him!

Walking in Coole Park with my family and our four dogs.

If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what do you think it would be?
A Unicorn.

My sticker collection, that I've been adding to since I was 8. Im too old to trade them now, but I still collect them. Ive got furrys, shinys, holograms, the lot! I even buy rare ones of the internet. Its quite sad actually.
