A trip to Malahide Park and old childhood memories
Monday, November 12th, 2012
#kids Took the kids to Malahide park yesterday. For some reason, despite taking the kids regularly there, it was a little nostalgic this time for me. As a kid, I use to play in Malahide park and grounds all the time. It was our second backyard.Me an…

#halloween2012 I do enjoy halloween though this year we felt really rushed to get all the last minute touches done. The kids had a blast, damn fine haul too. We had an army of trick-or-treaters. We made about 50-60 bags and we were left with about …
A little experiment in blogging motivation
Thursday, November 1st, 2012
I’m starting a little experiment here today. It has been two months since the last time I posted here and even back then I have been extremely quiet. It seems that G+ (my G+ profile) has hit that magic spot for me and manages to sate the blogger within. However I’m loathe to let this [...]
“A Non Designer’s Design Book”
Wednesday, August 1st, 2012

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012
Apparently I’ve become a morning person. This is something has crept up on me. It certainly wasn’t intentional. The New York Times has this quiz that determines if you are morning or night person. I got about 21 on the scale. I wake at 6am, every morning, even on weekends. When I get the chance [...]
