Dublin Break. Day Three {Final Day}

Hey Jelly Beans.

Today was my final day here in Dublin. I'm Currently sat outside a cute little café having a coffee after visiting The Science Gallery.

 
This attraction is well worth the visit. It's free, interesting and if you love anything Science related then you will love this place. I spent a long while looking around the exhibit's which were truly fascinating. I noticed that there were many families in there with younger children, so I suggest it would be a good place to visit during the holidays with children.
 
Once I had finished I took a stroll along the streets and pottered around all the little shops before taking a well earned break here.
 
Like I said today has been my last day here in Dublin. Cases packed and ready to head home tomorrow and I will miss it here.
 
Overall Experience.
 
I have had such a blast here seeing some truly amazing things. The Castle was amazing and worth the trip but the thing that stood out most for me was the Famine Sculptures. I can not express how moving and sad but at the same time fantastic they really are. They are an experience I will take home with me.
 
Ashling Hotel
 
Beautiful room. Located close to the bus stops and tram stations. Reception and all staff very helpful. Check in was easy. They have a luggage scale that is useful when packing bags for return flights (which I seriously needed!). Wifi was great (small blip to begin with forgotten about). Highly recommend staying here to family and friends. I would stay here again.
 
Well friends, I'm going to finish off my coffee now and head back to the hotel to finish off packing. Thank you for staying with my on my second adventure. Look forward to speaking to you again soon.

Sugar and Crumb Icing Sugar Review

Good Morning Everyone. I love to cook, I love to bake and love to try new things. Hence why I started a cake and bakes business. There is one thing I love more than anything and that's trying new flavours. This is where the amazing brand Sugar and Crumbs come in. Sugar and Crumb have an amazing range of natural icing sugar and cocoa powder  that I just couldn’t refuse trying out. Not only that, it was the perfect excuse to bake cake!  Sugar and Crumb have a large number of icing sugars so I took the plunge and purchased a couple. Jaffa Twist, Bubble Gum, Coconut & Lime and White Chocolate and Raspberry. The package is stylish and  eye catching when it arrived. It contains recipes for simple cupcakes and also butter cream icing using the product. What I was also pleasantly surprised to find they can also be used to make fudge, meringues, marshmallows and other delicious treats. Obviously, I will be giving these a go at a later stage. A...

 Hello Jelly Beans! Anyone here like chocolate? Ok, Does anyone here like chilli chocolate? Yes I hear you shout, But have you had any quality chocolate? Grim Reaper's Hell Raiser Milk Chilli Chocolate  is chocolate for chilli heads. There are plenty of chocolates out there with 'a hint' of chilli but this one is not designed for those people. As Grim Reaper foods develops their packaging designs continue to grow. This bad has the great touch of being sealed on the edge with a ribbon with I love. The packet says "With Devilishly Hot Naga Jolokia, Sweet Orange, Clove Oil & Cinnamon   Can you Handle the Heat? Innocent milk chocolate corrupted with Naga chillies, orange oil, clove oil and cinnamon, bringing you heat summoned from the deepest depths of hell. This devilishly hot bar will test even the most seasoned of chilli lovers !" I would say that is a very accurate and honest description of the wonderful contents awaiting you inside. Each ...
