INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY


This is Tracey of Tracey’s Farmhouse.
Tracey is part of the MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience that I took part in, in her cottage on my recent Ireland tour with Luxury Gold.
We were in Northern Ireland’s Strangford Lough, just a half hour from Belfast. Tracey’s 17th  Century thatched cottage on the water’s edge, and it was a pure vision of charm.









Tracey welcomed us into her cozy home and
demonstration of how to make traditional Irish soda bread. It was not just educational but oh so entertaining. I loved how, with just two ingredients—buttermilk and flour— she taught us to measure with our hands… no other utensils, and make this iconic staple.


Tracey’s recipe is a testament to how a few fresh, local ingredients are all you need for this traditional treat. Then she provided a lovely tea.









I can not even begin to explain how this experience fulfilled so many childhood daydreams and bucket list items. It was pure and charming and magical.
