Church of St. John, Ballybunion
St. John’s in Ballybunion is one of the most magnificent churches in the Kerry Diocese.
Mary Young, whose seated statue is placed facing the church was one of the main benefactors.
Mary has left us all a spectacular legacy.
This beautiful window is above the main altar.

Nettle Soup
Pic and text from Folklore.ie
Here is something that many of you will have heard already – eating nettles in May. My grandmother would always have one feed of them cooked up with the bacon and cabbage. I’ve heard others who say that you were meant to have three feeds of them. Good for the blood apparently – full of iron. I make nettle soup with them and you’d never know they were in it once mixed with other vegetables.
