The Luck O' the Irish

Everyone who knows me well knows how I get a little crazy when it comes to holidays. I don't know why, but I just feel like if there is even a remote possibility that a day should be celebrated, then we should jump on it and go all out. (Actually, I think I just tend to like to have something to look forward to that is different from the every day grind of things.) So, here we are, celebrating St. Patrick's day. Why not? It's green, it's lucky, it's GREAT!!! Blair did get a pinch, since he forgot (I know--how is that possible?) that it was green day and wore a black shirt to work. When he got home I made him hold this shamrock up for the picture so that he at least appeared festive.

Here is the green soup we had....cream of broccoli. Yumm.

Dessert: Green fruits and green fruit dip.

Don't ask me why my eyes are half closed. Too many Irish spirits? I think not. Too many nights without sleep, due of course to our little Leprechaun.
And here he is...in full chub. He is actually quite sick with a nasty cough, but came out for the food. Get's him every time.
Definitely our Lucky Charm!

  1. So glad I'm not the only one who makes a big deal about holidays! I love the green fruits and dip idea. I just might have to copy it next year!
