My brain is being thrown in a gazillion different directions right now.

They are all good directions, great directions. Directions that I am so excited about, but it’s hard to stay focused on just one at time.

The thing I am most excited about, and that is creating the greatest problems staying focused, is the barn. Oh my gosh, I cannot wait to show you guys the plans. Pinterest has been my best friend this weekend. Seriously, I have gotten so many cool ideas. It is going to be kind of awesome. I feel so lucky. People wait their whole lives to do something like planning out their dream space and I am doing it now. Although, my plans may be a little different from most.

The whole barn has a lot to do with the kitchen, pantry and area where I will shooting.  Basically, I am creating a home and studio space in one.

Obviously, I am so excited, but it is making my life busier….which I did not even know was possible.

But hey, they say the more you have to do, the more you get done. So I’m just gonna go with that. All that matters is that I am super happy with what I have going on in my life right now. Whoop!!

But now I need to switch gears and focus on the food (see!)!!

And Irish food. Irish, carby, food covered in cheese. Yessss.

It’s no secret the Irish do love their potatoes.

And what’s better than crispy tater tots covered in cheese and bacon? Not a whole lot, it’s a winning combo for sure. I am not sure how the Irish feel about guacamole or avocados, but we are going to pretend they love um…and bacon too!
