Irish woman Phyllis McDonagh is, according to an apron that hangs in her kitchen, the “World’s Greatest Hostess”.Sitting around the large wooden table in the 87-year-old’s Dublin home are Viktoria Kasianenko who was driven with her four-year-old daughter Barbara Yevlakhova and step-daughter Anna Yevlakhova to join her husband Yury in Dublin.
