HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY!!

....and a Top o the Mornin' to ya!



I grew up celebrating St. Patricks Day. My Dad's side of the family are hardcore Irish people I tell ya. I have pictures from when I was 4 or 5 in a "Irish Girl" t-shirt. In college, we celebrated sometimes starting as early as 7am. Man, do I miss those days!

Today, I'm decked out in all my green apparel (light up shamrock necklace, beads, bracelet, green sweater..) in anticipation for when I'm off work and can go celebrate this holiday the right way in this beautiful weather!

If you aren't planning on celebrating today, atleast treat yourself to one of these bad boys...


the shamrock shake from McDonald's
Mmmmm...SO good.


Here are some pictures that really make me smile today.












{you didn't think I'd forget about my favorite movie filmed (some) in Ireland..did you? Gerard..so so sexy}



{this actually has nothing to do with St. Patricks Day..but I can just hear him singing this song in PS. I Love You and had to include it just because he is that good looking}

last but not least...


What do you do to celebrate?!
I made mint brownies last night but that's pretty much the extent I go (besides some green beers!) I would love to make corned beef one day - maybe
l'll put that on the list for next year :)

I hope everyone has a great GREEN day!

  4. Happy REAL St. Patricks Day! I thought it was yesterday. Oops. My mom used to make corned beef and cabbage every year. I would bet money she's got it cooking away in the crock pot right now.

  13. This has nothing to do with your post, LOL but I wanted to know what you feed Rocky?

    random question for you. I am asking all my fellow Pom owners this..What do you feed your Poms? How long have they been eating that specific brand of food? Do you or have you had to change it up?
