Top O' The Mornin' To Ya!

Last night around 11:00 I remembered that today was St. Patrick's Day and it made me a little sad. Sad because when my kids were younger I would do little things like scatter gold coins and tiny leprechaun hats around the house to make it look like leprechauns had been there. Sometimes they got fun shamrock glasses to wear or necklaces. Well, I guess they're growing up because it didn't even enter my mind to do any of that. But I still thought my kids would appreciate something to make the day a little more fun...b/c that's really what holidays like this one are about for me. Day to day life can get pretty monotonous so it's nice to mix things up a bit. I hopped online and found these shamrock shaped crescent rolls.
They were really easy and guess what? My kids were over the moon about them! Now I want to come up with some other fun thing for dinner because I guess they aren't that old after all!
I thought I'd Leave you with an Irish Blessing for your day!

Always remember to forget
The things that made you sad.
But never forget to remember
The things that made you glad.

Always remember to forget
The friends that proved untrue.
But never forget to remember
Those that have stuck by you.

Always remember to forget
The troubles that passed away.
But never forget to remember
The blessings that come each day.


Have a great day today...and Erin Go Bragh!

  1. C'mon mom, how about a shamrock shaped cinnabon with icing? that's what I'm talking about.

    I wonder what happened to Gram's Ol Danny Boy album or the one by the Irish Rovers?

  2. Or my favorite Irish ditty, "Has anyone here seen Kelly, K.E. Double L.Y., has anyone here seen Kelly, Kelly from the Emerald Isle".

    I don't remember the Irish Rovers. I might have to track down their latest CD! Lol
