   Bread was of two kinds, oat meal bread and wheaten-meal bread. The meal was wet with water. The oat-meal cake was put standing before the fire on a bread stick, and the wheaten bread cut into squares and baked on a griddle. Baking was done once a week. The corn was grown and milled locally. The principal meat used was bacon killed and cured by the farmers but there was also a good deal of Veal. All bull calves were sold to local butchers and the farmer selling one usually stipulated for a quarter. Fish too was fairly plentiful - the car-men or commons carriers vesting Drogheda and other sea-port towns and bringing supplies. Special food for special days consisted of boxty-loaf. No one living saw the quern but there are many old ones to be seen here and there about farmers houses in the country.
   Potato-bread is made by boiling and peeling the potatoes- pounding them up, mixing with flour and salt
