Lorraine is the mommy! Yesterday was Mothers Day here in Ireland (and the UK) but completely overshadowed in the blog world by the Irish Blog Awards. Italian Foodies won Best Food and Drink blog and as Lorraine was home nursing sick baby Val, Maz and I had no problem basking in her glory! Val and Maz collected the award in her honour, though to everyones bitter disappointment they did not give a speech. Squid @ Limerick Blogger brought another award home to Limerick in the shape of a tie for Best Current Affairs Blog and Val and Maz like the troopers they are collected that award too. A bottle of champagne accompanied both awards but I know nothing about what happened to those.
Kieran won Best Business Blog for the second year in a row, and thanks for the chocolate! I was the sober person who had to leave early to get back to my oven so I hope the mums of Limerick appreciated their buns yesterday morning. Thanks to Damien for the superhuman effort I can't even imagine went into putting on such a great night. Roll on next year!
Well Laura, I hope you're putting your feet up and relaxing with a good book today!!!

Hi Laura! I'm so sorry I didn't get to meet you! It was like a whirlwind... I was probably too busy making a complete ass of myself elsewhere! There's always next year I suppose! ;-)

Sarah: I tried to read but I fell asleep after five minutes!
Deborah: I got to say hi to you at the beginning of the night with Val but then poor Kieran had to put up with my mumblings for ages!

I Haven't a clue what happened to Lorraine's champagne either, some druken eejit must have opened it and then abandoned it on a table somewhere!!!!

I hope you weren't to exhausted by have to drive back to make the muffins. Still, judging by the photo, no harm at all!
