    Happy Saint Patty's day!

    Luck of the irish to all of you!
    My dh asked what I am up to today? Duh looking for a pot of gold!
    Are you all wearing your green? I have green eye's so I always use that.
    I am irish but not traditional irish. You are supposed to go to church today but.....
    So what are you doing? We are having a pot luck tonight with the neighbors and a few friends! I got me irish beer ready my lads! Just need to pull out my irish music and we will be set! I think we will play count my freckles. It is going to be a long night!
    Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

    My spin teacher always does an Irish spinning class. You either love it or hate it. I love it!

    My niece teaches Irish step dance, so I'm wearing a sweatshirt from her school. After I got to work I realized I should have worn my cycling jersey that we had made for our Livestrong ride, the one with "may the wind be always at your back" on the back and the celtic knots all over it. Oh well, maybe next year.

    Someone brought green cupcakes into work, but I stayed away from them since the last thing I need are more calories! Though I'd make an exception for a nice bottle of Smithwick's, which is chilling in the fridge at home.

    Oh, and to nitpick it is St. Paddy's day, not Patty. Men don't like to be called Patricia. (It is my own personal mission to get folks to get that one right, and all the Patricks in my family are very grateful).
    You too can help me fight cancer, and get a lovely cookbook for your very own! My team's cookbook is for sale Click here to order. Proceeds go to our team's fundraising for the Philly Livestrong Challenge!

    Happy St. Paddy's day to you too!

    While going through my dads stuff last week I found my grandmothers immigration papers, I wonder if I still have family in Cork??

    You may be eligible to get an Irish (and therefore, European) passport. I don't know what the current rules are, but in the 90s if your grandparents were Irish, you could get citizenship. I have an EU passport, and it's quite handy. Someday maybe I'll live there again, but for now I use it to get through the speedy line at the airport in Paris.

    Happy St. Paddy's Day to all and Queen, if there was ever any family in Cork, then that answers that question, so, of course you still have family there.

    I haven't made any effort to wear green for a long time, as I figure it runs in my veins, eh?! Green from the inside-out here!

    Paddy, yes! Only clothing I'm wearing that has no green: my bra, shoes and watch. <grin> My eyes are blue, so I can't fall back on them!

    DH is having green beer with his workmates after work, so I'll go collect him when I'm done. Then back to our renovation. Not exactly celebratory, but, hey, we're both in the colours!
