They'll be coming 'round the mountains...

On Sunday, myself and my two lovely pals, Bibi and Rachel, headed up the mountains. We went to Glendalough which really is beautiful. And not that far away at all. Maybe it's because the last time I went I was small and trips in the car seemed like the never ending journey because Mam had the oh so spacious, two door, Ford Fiesta which we all were crammed into. Ahh the days of no seat-belts!
Anyway, Rachel is a chef and made delicious leek and potato soup, prosciutto and goats cheese sambos, and avoca mars bar squares.We obviously needed to replenish our dwindling, calorific intake due to all of the hard core mountaineering we were doing. So we attempted to be mountaineers. Well I am pretty sure they were grand but I was dying. We were allegedly on the easy Sunday, stroll route but the sign lied. It doesn't help when your friends want to go cross country style which led to my foot being in a very muddy, sludge pile. You should go sometime. But be warned, if your mountaineering ensemble isn't up to scratch, you will be totes embarrassed because there were lots of hill walking babes decked out in Breghause jackets and celeb-style sunglasses.

Then we called into Avoca for a spot of tea and smuggled in the remaining mars bar squares. We justified this devious act by the fact that it was from their recipe book so that's basically paying for them.

And in a miraculous, twist of fate, we all got engaged. On the same day! Or we tried on fake engagement rings. You decide...

Loads of fun.

PS I forgot my memory card so couldn't use my camera so these are from Rachel's handy dandy i phone.
