My Spices of Life in Belfast...


I can't get enough of fried egg gummies!!! SOOO Good!

I was asked if I always had an Irish twang…

I was hit on by a seventy something year old man in a pub the other night. He tried to touch my hair and got a ring caught in it. I was mortified! On his way out of the pub he blew me a kiss! I smiled out of pure uncomfort and niceness. What else was I supposed to do?

I get so nervous about crossing the street that even if people are walking across I will not walk because the “walk sign” is not on!

I have started to pick up on some of the phrases that are used here…we were muckers…spides and millies…wee…cheeky …and I have started to have them in my dreams, when I talk and when I type. Hopefully some of these phrases catch on when I come back home!

I am the only person who is wearing sandals outside. I think they think this is cold weather! I would be wearing shorts and a t-shirt if I were back home!!!

Cheers !!!

Great randomness!

Those gummies, look interesting...you will HAVE to bring some back to the U-S of A. :)

That is a must. I am going to have my mom bring a bunch back with her when she comes to visit! BTW: The white part is a fluffier vanilla gummie and the yoke is lemon!
