One for the weekend

Happy Weekend! Last weekend involved the last performance of 'The Secret Art of Murder', a pretty epic wrap party, and watching Dublin win the All-Ireland Final (from a nice comfy spot in our local pub); so the small matter of shooting a short film seems positively relaxing.

What are you up to this weekend? In case you need a little inspiration, here are some feel-good suggestions:

WATCH: A Town Called Panic
(One of my favourite films ... I'd go as far as to say Top 5!)

LISTEN: Hey Ho - The Lumineers
(I heard a great version at a recent wedding)

READ: Sense and Sensibility - Jane Austen
(Very funny and VERY English)

EAT: Vanilla Ice cream and Homemade Chocolate Sauce
(I actually substitute the sugar for golden syrup and water for instant coffee!)

DO: Go for a blustery walk, and look out for blackberries!
(Aim higher than dogs can pee)

MAKE: Roast Tomatoes and Goats Cheese
(A family classic)
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Slice a load of juicy Tomatoes, and lay them (slightly overlapping) across the bottom of an ovenproof dish. You can also add chopped Bell Peppers, and Red Onion if you want. Sprinkle with crushed Garlic, freshly ground Pepper, and any Herbs you fancy (I like basil/oregano) across the top, then crumble generous amounts of Goats Cheese over. Drizzle with Olive Oil, and place in the centre of the oven for about 20 minutes, Or until the cheese is melted and a bit golden. Serve with a warm baguette, and don't be too polite ... the more dipping the better!
