Brown Thomas: Restaurant Treat

Sorry for the lack of posts on this particular section; as I haven’t been eating a lot of food/skipping meals due to my sleep schedule. I find myself super lethargic during the day, and I’m not too sure what’s causing it.

In Memory of my Father (Brian Fagan) — 1st of September 2015

It has been a long few weeks for me, with lots of things going wrong. I didn’t get my PhD place, my laptop broke, had other issues, been struggling finding projects to collaborate on, and my health hadn’t been the best of…

Saturday night chicken

So we found a whole chicken for €4. So we couldn’t really pass it up! Along with a load of frozen veg that will get us through at least 2 months, I’d say it was a good haul.

Edit: I won’t give any advice for cooking chicken, as you should always follow the…

An Unexpected Hiatus

I’ve nothing to say for myself and for the neglect of the blog other than life just got in the way. It’s a pretty poor excuse for not being around. Or giving this blog the time it deserves, but I think that with everything that has happened, losing my dad and then subsequently losing my…

A series of unfortunate events

I’m sorry for not being able to keep up with my blog as much as I’ve liked to over the past while but there’s been a problem with creating lengthy posts.

I may have set my laptop on fire recently. Basically I caused a power surge in the house and…

Saturday musings

I don’t know why, but once I get up early in the morning. I have to start doing stuff otherwise I feel like I’ve wasted half of my day.

This morning for example I’ve been looking up NFC cards and kid friendly tablets that have NFC built into them. Which I’ve found to my…

Without Iwata-san what now for Nintendo?

Mix & Match: Left overs — Turnabout Pastabake! (Anyone get the reference?)

This is something I’d wanted to try for a while, how to utilise a combination of canned food and left overs to make a new dish for dinner.

WB : Please Understand.

I’m gonna talk about something that has seen a lot of controversy and outrage in the past while both about the leaked trailer for Suicide Squad & the PC edition of Arkham Knight. I’m more going to be discussing how they handled it, rather then why they decided to handle it the way they…

Tsum Tsum

I’ll admit it. I’ve never been a massive smartphone gamer. I never saw the appeal of sitting there mindlessly playing something that didn’t feel substantial.

Gaming for me is not just an exercise in escapism and artistry but in storytelling. None of which I ever felt was present in…

Yoshi’s Wooly World

Without a Doubt Too Excited for this

This is going to be a game journal to tell you what I’ve been playing and how i’m getting on with it. What I like about the game play, design and what I don’t. I won’t be giving any scores or anything like…

10 minute Dinner on a Monday Night

For the unaware, I’m very interested in my food and how its cooked. Its a passion I’ve developed since I’ve moved out into my own home and have had to cook for someone else. These are going to be the exploration into the food I cook daily or nightly. If you’re…

From One Womb to Another : A battle for a right to my life.

I’ll never understand why in Irish culture there is so much emphases on the womb and not on the woman. Everything about going to a gynecologist for me, as a young women has been nothing but arduous met with little to no…

Chronic Illness & Good Stuff

There have been several things that I’ve been wanting to accomplish with this blog but I’ve always hit the usual wall of not knowing what to write and finding a way for my first post to be compelling!
