Easter holidays started very peaceful weekend over here. Two of my housemates did travel abroad from Ireland during whole Easter week since we have (again) week long break from university. Third one has family visiting over so I wont see even her much so it kind of a feel I would be living alone in the house.
In Ireland Easter is not that much celebrated holiday, chocolate and masses in a simply way to say it. But still it seems that take it rather seriously here, for example on Thursday Roost closed at midnight because during Good Friday either restaurants or shops were not allowed to sell alcohol. Anyway we visited at Roost because there are not that many weeks left anymore so need to keep up Thursday Roost tradition. Rest of the Eastern weekend days went mostly just chilling and doing nothing that special, walking outside (enjoying the sun!!) and having a bbq.
But absolutely highlight of weekend was Sunday morning Easter brunch which we decided to arrange instead of international dinners. So much food, so good food both sweet and salty. For example oreo-cheesecake, cheese macaronis, peanut butter cookies, beans, bacon and pudding.... I ate so much that I felt like exploding and after brunch when we were just sitting and chatting something, I really needed to struggle to stay awake with having a full stomach, warm house and cozy chair.
Rest of the Eastern break goes travelling around, probably my final travels around Ireland so it is now or never to see places where haven't been yet! Anyways it is time to go to bed now because I need to pick up the car again in the morning.
