St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!  It's always a fun holiday.  I haven't heard whether there were enough signatures on the petition to make St. Patrick's Day an official holiday but if I hear anything I'll let you know.  What's funny is that we celebrate this holiday in the states significantly more than the people of Ireland!  I have tons of cousins in Ireland and they were surprised at how we celebrate when I told them.   But to continue the celebration I found a website where you can watch for leprechauns in Ireland, get a recipe for Beef in Guiness, learn the Irish language and find out the history of the shamrock.  If you want to check it out click on this link http://www.irelandseye.com/.  Have a wonderful St. Patrick's Day and, if you decide to go out to drink, please make sure you have a designated driver so everyone is safe!!
