Cooking mad

This week Úna was in the kitchen cooking up a storm in her apartment. She put together a meal of garlic crab claws and homemade potato gratin with nutmeg white sauce – delicious! 1601430_268998939919759_959845125_n

The Nesting Period Cathy has recently moved into a new house and is having fun making it pretty. As well as fashion, she's now obsessed with interiors too. Penneys have some great homeware pieces at the moment, she snapped up this cosy throw for €20 and even better a cute photo frame for just €2. penneysframe

Always the Bridesmaid Grace has the task of organising a hen party this year, as her eldest sister plans to wed in August. The New Year means that the pressure is on for party plans from eager hens, and this week Grace spent a few days seeking out the greatest Hen & Stag party destinations in the country, settling with Cork as the chosen city. This had nothing to do with her love for Roy Keane, she promises us. DownloadedFile-1

Dear Diary

This week, Sue received her new 2014 diary in the post which she bought from Taschen.com. Sue picked the London diary as she spent almost two and a half years there and loves the city. She may be slightly obsessed. http://www.taschen.com/

New York, New York Michelle is spending January being very dull indeed; eating well, staying in and saving money. But it's all for a very good reason, as she has just booked a trip back to her spiritual home of New York for March. The flights, hotels and tickets to Madison Sq.

American Hustle After hearing brilliant reviews from other members of Her.ie, Cathy is seriously excited about going to see this film. Namely for the inclusion of J=Law but by all accounts it's a brilliant story too. Since cake-obsessed Cathy heard Jen tripped on the way to collect her Oscar because she was thinking about cake, she's convinced they are kindred spirits... 0d07516a-9cfb-45f0-83e2-7348ef0bd7a2_americanhustle_jenniferlawrence_blog

In the Buff The one thing Grace has learnt from her online searching is that you should always be careful what you write on Twitter, as you may end up earning some interesting new followers, like Buff Butlers, that promise to supply the highest quality naked butler for any occasion. We don't doubt it for one minute.
