St. Patrick's Day

[mina]

is approaching....Is anyone doing anything fun for this day?

*please no debating of this holiday- this is meant to be a light hearted thread*

 

[Wren]

Well, earlier today I entered a drawing for a $1000 shopping spree that happens that day. Otherwise, no. I never do anything for St. Patrick's Day.

I haven't ever done anything. There's an Irish pub style place near my apartment and I might see what they're doing for the day.

hmm, I doubt it, I haven't done anything special on that day since I was little and went around pinching people.

I'm spending it in Vermont this year. I'm so excited.

6 month anniversary!

I love St. Pat's and do something every year.
I cook up a storm and do it up almost as much as Christmas.

It's going to be extra special having that be our 6 month anniversary.

I'm going to behave...no Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes this year...

As for the OP, I think we're going to make some Irish foods.

It's my favorite holiday! I'm sure I'll make some Irish food if I can find stuff that I can actually eat. Last year I had a st patti's day party. Wanted to make it a yearly thing but maybe not this year as I have an operation on the 14th and don't know how I'll be feeling. But we will probably go to the parade again. It was great last year and possibly check out an Irish pub for some Irish music, that's usually what we do. And lots of wearing green and goofy hats! I will probably start to put up some of my st. patti's day decorations this weekend and probably leave them up well past Easter again!

wearing green here! I also might make some Irish soda bread and mint cupcakes. This is the first year in forever I haven't built a leprechaun trap or created tiny green footprints..... Maybe we'll go to a parade or go see a performance of Irish music.

I always celebrate, even if it's just by wearing green. I used to argue with my mom that I don't have to wear green because my eyes are green but she always said they're more hazel, so...

This year I'll probably make some sort of Irish food, though I haven't decided what yet. And I've got to make sure I remember to call my aunt and wish her a Happy Birthday

And I will definitely have Celtic Thunder blasting throughout the day, but that's not really different than any other day (at least in my head... for St Paddy's I'll probably actually play it on the computer )

 

[CrystalBrooke]

Aside from wearing green, I'm pregnant so I won't be partaking in the activities that I normally do. My friend's baby shower is that day, but I have to work.

 

[JohnDB]

If I can...

I was wanting to make corned beef, cabbage & potatoes complete with horseradish sauce. Slllluuuurrp

Maybe wear green during the day. Or some green wire.
