It was brilliant to take part in RDS Rude Health show this year. What a buzz we had at the Walmer stand. To all the people that we get to meet thanks for your time and interest and hope to see you again some time soon.
For me personally it was great to meet Lilly , the owner and founder of Lilly’s Eco clean, my fave eco product for the household …and to discover that Ecobaby is delivering Eco houseclening products ( next day delivery in Dublin )! you know my passion for the environment , I believe we all can help to make a difference and these companies certainly walk the talk. Please support them 
A little bit of eye candy as well …the good looking RTE Doctor from How long will you live? was walking around the RDS… so there you go , if you miss us this year there is always 2009 to look forward.
Love and blessings,
Maria
Dear Friends,
In the Living section of MJL’s Blog I love to include and recommend events , activities and people that inspire me, attract my attention or that are just simply so beautiful you can’t help by feeling great just by contemplating them.
St Anne’s Rose Gardens Festival ticks all the boxes. Not only the Rose Gardens are placidly waiting for you to admire their beauty ..and what a miracle that is. The oval garden has more than 25,000 rose plants and is one of the finest rose gardens in Europe. What a fest for the senses: the smell of the roses is so lovely you can’t help but smile, visually the multicolor rose displays are extraordinary , you can almost taste a sweetness in the air and all these combine with the sounds of St Anne’s birds, wind and trees leaves is almost idillic. You feel transported into a Jane Austin novel..though I couldn’t find Mr Darcy
During the Festival there is Arts-Crafts and Food all day. Today it was the Family Day out and it was like being back in South America with the sunny weather ( thanks God for that !) and Havana Son playing Cuban music in the main stage I’ve also discovered a new food stall that I thought to promote in the blog as I was really impressed with the owner and the quality of the products. Natasha’s passion for her products and as a person is obvious . Not only is she an attractive fiery red-head but when she found out I was from Chile it was obvious that she had a passion for all things South America and she uses beautiful ingredients to make fer famous chocolates ( made with 100% pure cacao beans imported from Peru) and raw food that prides itself to be diary-sugar-wheat-egg free and yes ! surprisingly they taste delicious.We tried the Spice Sprouted Flax Crackers, the Blue berry cheese cake, the humus, and the pure delightful chocolate . My god you have to taste them..even if you just only try the chocolate piece of heaven please do . Natasha will be doing a talk in temple Bar chocolate festival next weekend.

That’s all for now.. my mouth is watering, I think it is time for more chocolate
