How
to Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day: This
day has been associated with parades and parties and festivals. Of course Green Beer and Irish whiskey are
always tried and true for those of us over 21.
For the wee ones try adding Green food dye to water, ice tea or
soda. Makes for a fun and festive
drink. Shamrock cookies and candies add
to the Sugar overload. Always have fun
and remember that this is a day of fun and frolic. We could talk about the history of St. Patrick’s Day and American
and Irish traditions, but the Internet is full of stories about the
history. We just want you to know we
believe the love of all things Celtic should be a year round experience not
just celebrated on one day per year and forgotten. So here’s a wee toast for March 17th…
The
Wearin O the Green
Parades
and festivities abound.
Wee
ones and adults alike frolic around.
Shopping
and Crafts and holiday faire
Line
the city streets and rural routes everywhere.
After
the parades and shopping end
And
the sugar overload in our kids mend,
We
send them to bed thinking of a St. Patrick’s Day dream
And
we head to the pub for a shot of Jim Beam!
