St. Patricks Day


One tradition I have carried into our marriage is the celebration of St. Patricks Day. My family has celebrated St. Patricks Day as long as I can remember. We are pretty serious about it...the option is wear green OR get pinched! No sooner had I walked out of the room with Jason in our pajamas than my 5 year old niece was pinching us because we didn't have green on yet. I asked her "what if we have on green undies and you just can't see them?" She wasn't buying that explanation. :) We always have on something green, and we always have corned beef, cabbage, carrots and potatoes for dinner. This year my sister even made green noodles for lunch (spinach pesto with pasta).


I should add that we celebrate the day because we are part Irish. We don't just celebrate it as an excuse to drink green beer.
