Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I hope everyone had their fill of corned beef and cabbage! Although, I think I've decided that it's not that great, it's just a tradition that I feel like I have to do every year to remember my Irish heritage. My poor cousins, we made them all a big corned beef dinner last night, and I'm sure that nobody really liked it. I didn't really. I'll have to make it up to them and have them over for something actually yummy.


I made it up to the husband and kids tonight by having everything green (huge hit)! We had green eggs (eggsaroneous, actually- Shelly we'll always be grateful for that recipe!), bacon (okay, that's not green, but oh well), pears, broccoli w/ Asiago sauce (thank you Costco!), green jello fruit salad, and green Kool-Aid. Oh, and Lime Chiffon for dessert. All on a nice green tablecloth with green plates, etc. and gold napkins. What can I say, I LOVE holidays!!


Kierra didn't like the whole "pinching if you're not wearing green" thing, so she was very quick to put a green shirt on. She was so stressed about it that she tried to find some green pants to go with it, just in case. Then the rest of the day, she would point at random things and say, "We don't pinch the couch, that's naughty, huh Mommy?" Yes, sweetie, that's naughty. But I don't think that quite calls for a time-out:)
