Garden State

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

This post should really have appeared on MTeriors as a guest post but I started in Wordpress so it’s going to have to live here now!!
Many of us are now doing the American thing and giving Apartment living a go, some of us out of necessity and some by choice. Well either way a [...]

Stationery Heaven

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

If you were a little girl in the 1980’s you may remember the wonder and amazement that “smelly paper” and “fancy pens” would cause in the average classroom.  I used to love those pencils where there were all different colours within the same pencil and you would remove the colour from the bottom and stick [...]

Travel 2007 by Margaret

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

One of the first articles way back in the beginning of StyleTreaty was on packing for a trip abroad. Since then, new regulations have been imposed as regards what you may and may not have in your carry on luggage.

Urban Myth

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

 
The perfect hair Salon is an urban myth, right?  Wrong!!  I finally found a hair salon that I think I’ll actually return to.  I recently paid a visit to Halo (The Urban Retreat) at 41 Roches Street for a badly needed treatment and a blowdry.   Halo opened its doors in 2003, the brainchild of Pauline Whelan, [...]

Crocs - the devils shoes??

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

 
These have to be the most ugly excuse for a shoe/sandal I have ever seen.  In fairness they make Uggs look fabulous!!!!!!   I have resisted blogging about them because I really didn’t think they were worth the bandwidth but the latest edition of the Limerick Independent has made it essential.

Cheat your way to Fitness

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

I absolutely hate exercise, I even hate thinking about it. People say “would you not just go out for a walk”……well no, I wouldn’t. I claim not to have time, but I always manage to make time for things that are important to me. I make time to cook in the evenings, to blog, to [...]

Cooking With Daisy by Mary T

Monday, July 16th, 2007

A few weeks back Laura mentioned the minefield of the end-of-year gift for the teacher. Now this is something I put a lot of thought into, I have a sister who is a teacher and each Christmas and Summer she comes home with about 10 boxes of “Celebrations”, 7 or 8 candles and 5 or 6 pictures [...]
