Hello! How was your weekend? I thought this might be a sweet way to perk up a Monday. I remember falling in love with this beautiful animated short at the Galway Film Fleadh way back in 2012, so when Ben told me he'd spotted it online, I couldn&

Some shots of The Fumbally cafe, taken last year for a feature on Dublin 8 for Dylan magazine. The vibe is lovely and chilled, the food delicious and there are so many quirky touches that you could probably spend a whole day here and still find new things to shoot.

I know I've basically just said I love lamp, but I don't even care. I also don't even care that this lamp just ticks way too many trend boxes – copper, mint, geometric. Made in Montreal, it won the Best Prototype award at IDS 2014,

Are you spotting it too? The evenings are getting that little bit brighter, bit by bit. I'm loving watching these bloom on the kitchen windowsill.
Music
Beautiful new track and making of vid from one of my all-time favourites, Gemma Hayes. I love learning about the mechanics of a song, how it came about, what ideas sparked together – in this case, how a photographer's work inspired the lyrics. Watch it below. PS. Lovely interview
Food
Have you come across Bean and Goose? Created by Karen and Natalie Keane, sisters and chocolate makers, it has become a new obsession. Their artisan single origin chocolate is handmade in small batches each week in their kitchen in the Wexford countryside and can now be found in the Temple

Another one to add to my ever-growing list of podcasts, The Heart is a (kind of) new show that's come out under the Radiotopia umbrella, aka the most creative, interesting and all-around awesome podcast peeps in town. Exploring intimacy and humanity, I'm only three episodes in

How was your weekend? After two long, intense, but fun days criss-crossing Belfast city shooting for the next issue of Image Interiors & Living, I came home Friday and promptly collapsed on the couch. As gorgeous and comfy as our hotel had been, it was so nice to wake up
