This Week I'm Tweeting for @Ireland !
/I have the great privilege of taking the reins of the @Ireland Twitter account this week, from this morning until Sunday evening. The account is given to a new person every week and I think I'm the first from Northern Ireland to have a chance to tweet for the whole island.
If you have Twitter you can follow @Ireland this week and see what I'm up to.
Stellar Colourtone Knives. Hands off, boys.
/Does anyone else find their kitchen's supply of knives seems to disappear over time? I think it's a symptom of husbands using them for repairs (mine fitted our car radio with a knife and fork). If the knives are there, they blunt very quickly, so I'm glad my new Stellar Colourtone knives come with their own sheaths. It also makes them safe to bring on picnics or BBQs.
They are very reasonably priced from £4.00 with a set of three for only £14.50 on Amazon. Plus, they are pretty. There will be a ban on these being used for DIY purposes.

Want Something a Little Different from an Online Department Store? I Tried Zalando.co.uk
/ If your a night out, or big event coming up, it can be tricky picking something unique to wear, without being dressed the same as someone else. Here's a handy, little store to bookmark, www.Zalando.co.uk
It's the UK branch of German department store Zalando, and it stocks absolutely everything, in well known brands as well as chic brands you might not have seen before. European style is classic, sassy and everything is well priced.
I picked up myself a gorgeous, petrol colour bangle from a brand I hadn't come across in any UK originating department stores. I also treated myself to a handy, little bowed, elastic waist denim colour skirt for pulling on quickly should the sun return. Lastly, because Zalando also has a wide range of household goods, I replaced our poor weather-beaten door mat with a comical moose-print one.
Give them a visit yourself- Zalando.
