Jam Bakery Kemare, Ireland

One of that last places we stayed in Ireland was this cute little town called Kenmare. It was so quaint and just adorable. My favorite place by far was Jam's Cafe. They had so many options for baked goods from gluten free breads and scones to delicious cupcakes and crisps. They even had to-go items already packaged to take for picnics! The inside was decorated so colorful with little flags draping the from the ceiling. For lunch I had the goat cheese tart with cucumber salad and the chickpea salad. It was unbelievable- I'm still craving it! So if you ever happen to be in Kemare, Ireland Jam is the place to go. The link to their Facebook page is on the bottom.

What Inspires You?

Whether it's at the grocery store, driving down the road, looking through old photos, or looking at blogs- I'm always being inspired by little things. It's not necessarily what I see but what I feel or think of when I'm inspired by something. Here are a few things that I've been recently inspired by- summer light, summer fruits, shades of corals and pinks, and dreamy beach days. What inspires you?

We're Engaged!

So after a week in England, we headed to Ireland for our two week adventure of driving all over the southern part of the country. Our very first stop was at The Cliff's of Mohr, otherwise known as The Cliff's of Insanity in The Princess Bride. We were walking on the side of the cliff's, about a mile down, to where there was not a wall protecting you from the edge anymore and no one else was around. It was so windy and I'm scared of heights so what was supposed to be building up as very romantic was being overtaken by me being so scared. I said I wanted to start walking back but he insisted we kept going so I gave in and started walking in front of him. All of a sudden he said my name, I turned around, and he was holding the ring. I was in total shock! I had no idea because when we designed the ring (I fell in love with a pear shaped diamond and the rose gold setting) they said it wouldn't be ready in time for our trip. Well he ended up getting the ring before the trip, so I had no idea. As we were walking back I just started crying and was so happy. It feels so right and I could not be more in love with him!
