Where’s the Salt?

Hello gentle readers,

Sorry for the prolonged absence here, been busy falling down stairs, getting ambulanced off to hospital (nothing broken, just banjaxed neck), totally understanding why people get addicted to valium (they don’t call it mama’s little helper for nothing ), going to the States for what might be a life changing visit, returning to toooo much work, loosing (and finding again) all my email, and finally, spending last weekend learning great things from Carmel Somers at The Good Things Cafe in Durrus. (A full post to follow on the genius that is Ms. Somers).

I couldn’t make it to the Irish Blog Awards in the end, but big huge congrats to Conor & Kieran for their richly deserved wins on the night.

For now, I just wanted to point your attention to the upcoming showing of Baraka: The Film, which is being shown as a fundraiser at Arthaven Gallery in Crosshaven on March 23rd, at 8pm. It’s a Fair Trade Awareness event, as well as a fundraiser for The ATE Project (Irish people working with Peruvians in the slums of Lima) Tickets are €20 and include a galss of wine.

Perched overlooking the harbour in Crosshaven, Arthaven is a co-operative run by local artists and is well worth a visit if you are interested in Irish art. The regular knees up they host in the evenings are also legendary!
