Yup, it's women—the women who (roll their eyes and still somehow or at least 59% of the time) love us.
We spent an afternoon hiking throughout this uniquely scenic area along the north coast of Northern Ireland. Although we did not have time for the official visitor centre, we loved exploring this geological wonder. We also hiked to view "The Devil's Middle Finger" whose name reminds me of a favourite dad joke: dear middle finger, thank you for always sticking up for me. 😄
Afterwards, we ate the best scones with jam and clotted cream at The Nook, a pub nearby. I'd never had clotted cream before! 🤯 Dear friends, what is this dream fluff and why is it sooooooooooo good?! Hmm, maybe it's the 643 grams of fat in each dollop? Worth it.
We went to the Giant's Causeway the weekend before we left Ireland after a couple of years living there. We hadn't had many opportunities to see the country as my husband was on the streets of Belfast most of the time.
ReplyDeleteClotted cream is lovely, occasionally . . .
Like us, I'm glad you had the opportunity. If I lived where you live, clotted cream might need to be under lock and key.
DeleteMy photographer friend spent some time there at the Causeway.
ReplyDeleteI bet those photos are impressive.
DeleteVery cool and yes, I would love to see this in person.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed that happens someday.
DeleteCan't say I've ever had clotted cream either, but I do love a good scone.
ReplyDeleteScones are quite good...try making them...it's kind of fun...the secret? freezing cold butter
DeleteHad to look up clotted cream since it's not something that's generally on the menu at my house. I'm still unsure if I'd be able to try it, I have some texture issues. I could definitely appreciate the rock formations and 100% am able to use my middle finger in many locations for many reasons.
ReplyDeleteHa yes, it's a very useful digit, isn't it?
Delete...those basalt columns are amazing, geology fascinates me.
ReplyDeleteMe too...I minored in geology in university.
DeleteI've had clotted cream a few times at English "High Tea" places. Apparently it's a matter of contention whether the clotted cream should be put first on the scone with jam on the top, or vice versa. I'm a jam on the bottom type. That sounds more salacious than I meant it to be.
ReplyDeleteHaha, no judging. Yes, I've heard about this debate but quite honestly, I just want to eat more scones & clotted cream, either way.
