You're Grand: The Irishwoman's Secret Guide to Life

You're Grand: The Irishwoman's Secret Guide to Life

by TaraFlynn (Author)

Synopsis

Irish Women have been around for ages - some would say almost as long as Irish Men. We've learned a lot in that time but, until now, we haven't shared it. Perhaps being shushed by priests/foreign invaders/the wind for too long has taken its toll - but our time has finally come to speak out.
Here comedian Tara Flynn shares the wisdom of the Irishwoman, and why she holds the keys to success in life and how to live it - especially the rough bits. Armed with her all-purpose 'You're grand' philosophy, there is nothing the Irishwoman can't weather (even the weather).
Need dating advice?
Ask an Irishwoman.
Need a recipe for brown bread?
We're your gals.
Worried about death?
Don't be!
Put the fun back in funeral!

Covering all things grand, from the grand basics starter pack, to how to spice up your love life (a lesson in 'Irotica', anyone?) - if this book doesn't change your life (and it will), it might just help you laugh at it.
