Dublin Cookie Co is cooking up a business
GIVEN that it had been a good 15 years since she had last played rugby, Jenny Synnott was perhaps as surprised as anyone else to find herself togging out for a training session at Old Belvedere Rugby Club on a rainy night in early 2009. Newly arrived from Boston, the now 43-year-old, was looking for a social foothold in Dublin and having played a little rugby during her college days in Vermont, she decided the famous Dublin club would be a good place to start.
“I had been there a while when Jenny joined,” says Elaine Cahalan, Jenny’s wife. “We were friends and then about two years after she joined Old Belvo we got together.” Elaine herself had originally moved from Kilmichael in Cork in 2004 to study a Master’s in Cognitive Science.
