Black Olive, Potato and Mint Bake

 I've had one of those days where everything has taken about double, no triple the amount of time to do that I had anticipated and so I am awake at 2am, again!

But my increasing inability to perform even the simplest of tasks led to me throwing together this really easy, fab potato bake. 'Cause sometimes potatoes are the best comfort around especially when a stupid boy/man has not called.

Recipe-
A bit of feta thrown in would make this a great lunch dish.


Now I think of it there may be a correlation between my unproductive day and the amount of time I have spent pondering men and telephones but best not to dwell there.

Not a good start!

Well, I guess that a bit more blogging discipline is needed, so dusting off my keyboard and starting again.

MasterChef Ireland Final Night Party

MasterChef finished airing here in Ireland last week and we had a wee party to celebrate. I can't remember much after this point but even the next day's hangover was worth meeting up with all my pals again. The thing I most treasure from Masterchef was meeting 15 other people that are also completely obsessed with food. My fellow contestants inspired, challenged and taught me and I hope that I am going to be able to find that same kind of enthusiasm and support in the foodie blog world.

Dinner- Baked Spiced Chickpeas with Spinach and Tomato topped with yogurt and mint.
