Vetch, growing wild in the hedgerows in Howth. Oh hello there! I’m officially exhausted- We filmed a Christmas episode on the hottest day of the year so far this week, in an Irish kitchen, dressed to look like it could have been lifted out of the Tuscan hills. Terracotta tiles, copper pans, the works. Plating a duck under TV lights while the sun beat the stones outside and all the windows and doors were shut, was not for the faint hearted.
