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 17^th…

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!

Or Jameson Irish Whisky for the Celtic Attic Team. Ó Kristin Olsen 2014

TO ALL OUR CUSTOMERS:

Thank you so much for the last 15 years of joy, passion, and discovery, learning, growing and of course selling.  We appreciate you and without all your fiery passion for our history and heritage and all things Celtic we would not be here today.  We plan on at least another 15 years or more.  To celebrate our 15^th year milestone, each order will receive a free pdf copy of my cookbook version 2.  The cookbook is being updated with new recipes this year in Nov.  I am also launching hopefully two books this year, the long awaited Celtic Haunted Highway and a new book the ABC’s of Recovery. 

We have had a tough few months here at the Celtic Attic with the death of two children, on son’s girlfriend passing suddenly and leaving my grandson without a mum and my eldest son being hospitalized after a bought with the flu.  So needless to say that everyone comes to me because of my degree in Psychology and my Life Coaching practice.  I have counseled so many in the last few months it is a whirlwind for my mind.  As I was thinking about all of this I realized that a nice little booklet with some Celtic prayers, meditations I grew up with, some pictures I have been taking of peaceful and amazing scenery and some upbeat words of inspiration might be just what everyone needed, so I put a few things together and the kids loved it. I will expand upon it to cover the whole alphabet and days of the week so hopefully it can help others out.  There will be more about this book in upcoming newsletters.  As with most of my self help books it will be available in PDF and in soft cover versions.  I will also be launching a GoFundMe campaign to help with the production costs for this book.  Anyone that donates will get a free copy of the book.  So stay tuned for this.

As Always, Peace

We just wanted to thank each and every one of our customers for an amazing 2014. We have had a fun and interesting year with our Downtown Bremerton store and the Holiday store in the Kitsap mall. Both have been great adventures. We are working on opening another Celtic Attic store in East Bremerton or Silverdale that will have our handcrafted furniture, paintings and my new Celtic photography products as well as all our other product lines that are on the website. We are going to have a Photo Dress up booth and offer pictures as well as computer services and of course Celtic Attic shopping. We will be expanding our line of Irish, Scottish and British import foods as well. I only have a few leprechauns helping me right now, so it is a slow process. Stay tuned for more information about the store and the new products we are launching.

We also want to thank everyone that has supported our personal losses this holiday season. We lost 3 people this season and the last being my youngest son’s best friend’s girlfriend, who is really my kid too because he lived on my couch for years. She passed away the 30th of Dec from a gran mal seizure at age 19 and left behind my son and my 8-month-old grandson. We are working our way back from this loss to realize there is a plan in everything and everything has some purpose and meaning even if we are not intended to know it. It is certainly guiding my path and helping me realize that we must shoot for the stars even if we don’t make it and are hanging on to the tip of that elusive star swinging it might still be a fun ride. Life is an adventure so live it to the fullest! As we Celts know as too well.

Happy Early Valentines and St. Patrick’s Day! We have a great many items for sale that will make both your days perfect… We are in the process of adding more items for your shopping pleasure.
