Hi, my name is Santina Kennedy – welcome to my website! If you’ve got this far you’re probably interested in Irish Food or Irish Tales or hopefully both! This site is to introduce you to my greatest passion- telling the world about the story of Irish Food and Drink.
I’ll be delving into Ireland’s ancient history, to find out what Irish people were eating thousands of years ago; and exploring Ireland’s present exciting food culture.
Through our great Irish storytelling tradition we find out what Ireland has been eating; the clues are found in art, architecture, music, songs, poetry and legends right up to modern day restaurant reviews and instagram posts. From 5000 years ago, when the first farmers began to produce food on our island, to the innovative food and drinks producers of 21st century Ireland, there’s a feast to discover. So grab your knife, fork and glass and let’s explore some Irish Food Tales!

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.
You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.
Why do this?
- Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
- Because it will help you focus your own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.
The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.
To help you get started, here are a few questions:
- Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
- What topics do you think you’ll write about?
- Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
- If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?
You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.
Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.
When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
