Foghlaim faoinár nósanna ársa Samhna agus tú ag bácáil arán traidisiúnta torthaí Éireannach de do chuid féin, báirín breac. Sa cheardlann réchúiseach seo meascfar le chéile béaloideas Gaelach le deis phraiticiúil do phíosa staire féin a bhácáil.
Cuir áit in áirithe anois lena fháil amach cad é mar a shamhlaímid anois an tSamhain le milseáin, cad é mar a d'fhorbairt feistis ó phisreoga, agus faoi chríoch le domhan na marbh, ar caoile í an t-am seo bliana. Ná lig don phúca do bhuilín aráin a ghoid ar an bhealach amach! Imeacht dátheangach.
