I love all things Irish -- and that definately includes St. Patricks Day! I was able to take my first trip to Ireland last May, and had perfect weather, even got a sunburn. Walked my legs off, took tons of pictures as you can see above and loved every minute of it. I would and WILL go back again.
My maiden name is O'Leary, my mother was a Kavaney, and I married a Neill; even my step-mom was a Brady. I've got a few things laid out to fix in the coming days: some cheddar crisps, buttermilk pancakes, fisherman's soup, and some shepherds pie.
I do plan to go into Seattle on Wednesday and celebrate the day in style with some friends and some Guinness.
Over on our projects page this month, we are focusing on all things green with our "Wearin' of the Green" theme. Please send in your photos and I'll post them for you; that goes for you yarn shops as well.
Enjoy my photos of Ireland and get your green on!
Cheers!
