 Sweet Mia!

When I left Cork in a hurry to get back to Belfast last week, I left behind the ingredients to make marshmallow rice krispy treats. I passed the complicated recipe off to pro baker Edel and she created them for first time for her family. Here is Mia giving them the stamp of approval! Us yanks know how to embrace the classics - even added dark chocolate chips! Nothing but the best for our good friends!

I got to do 14 dives and 5 snorkel trips over our two weeks at Eco Cove Resort. I feel much more confident and comfortable diving, practice does truly help! Eco has these t-shirts that list all their Resort excursions - we made a nice dent in all of them and it's hard to pick a favorite!

This time the tde ws coming in quickly and alot of the island was already covered by water but that didn't dampen our party! We had a cooler of beer this time too! We also have become feriendly with the 2 families that were there sharing with us.
