Saint Patrick's Day - on the 17th of March

#16
May the Irish hills caress you.
May her lakes and rivers bless you.
May the luck of the Irish enfold you.
May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
 
#17
And another blessing:


Walls for the wind,
And a roof for the rain,
And drinks beside the fire -
Laughter to cheer you
And those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire!

My family is from Ireland, so it's always been a big deal in our household. Now that I'm out on my own, we usually just celebrate with an Irish dinner cooked at home. I used to do fish, but my husband loves corned beef, so that's what we have. I almost always make corned beef with colcannon, carrots, Irish soda bread, and we usually have some kind of Irish beer with that. We don't go out to pubs or anything, although it's a pretty popular holiday here.

Oh, and I always wear green! :greengrin:

Today is the day!

May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire.
