Well what kind of Irish Lass would I be if I didn't wish all my friends a Happy St. Paddy's Day!Today we will see people of all walks of life toasting each other, singing Irish ballads and wearing green. I've always wondered where these Irish folks are the rest of the year! Well I shouldn't say much as I am only half Irish on me mum's side. Oh the parties we would have.
A couple of years ago I had planned a St. Paddy's Day party. My youngest daughter and I made this shamrock cake. Sad thing was my niece and her family were visiting, and her youngest son took ill and we spent the day in the ER so the party had to be cancelled. The cake never got eaten. I froze it and had intentions of having family over but it all fell through. Ah the luck of the Irish....NOT!Speaking of luck, if it was a good sign, yesterday we had a terrible wind storm, winds up to 100km/hr, needless to say the power went out. At one point hubby was standing on the porch when he called me out to see something. Waht should I behold but the most beautiful rainbow....I mean it was the complete arch just to the side of our house. I have seen many rainbows in my time but never one as big and complete as that....yes I take that as a very good sign.
So to all my friends I wish you all good things on this St. Patrick's Day!
May you have no frost on your Spuds,
No worms on your cabbage.
May your goat give plenty of milk.
If you inherit a donkey, may she be in foal.
Don't walk in front of me I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me I may not lead.
Walk beside me And just be my friend.

Love your quote.. Happy St patrick's day and may you find riche at the end of your rainbows
Happy St. Patrick's Day to you as well! May the wind be at your back...thanks for the joyous post!
Sure and begorra! You're a fine Irish lass, indeed!
Hope you had a good day to do a wee bit of celebrating and wearing of the green.
I kissed my daughter, Mandy, good bye, braced myself for being up to the challenge of tending to Kurtis for the next five days as Mandy is going to be in Nevada, spending some glorious warm time with her Dad and stepmother. (Maya is staying with Mandy's best friend and her family so I should probably have a relatively easy time of it with only Kurtis to deal with. By himself, he's usually fairly docile. Usually. Yeah and watch old Murphy come through and change his laws on me or some such! Just joking there. Well, I hope it doesn't play out that way!
