I like to be cautious on St. Patrick’s Day so I prevent any pranks by wearing my special “Do Not Pinch” shirt. This picture is from 2012 but Erik and I actually wore the same shirts today, but didn’t think to take a picture…
Yesterday I made Pistachio Cake for St. Patrick’s Day. Since I didn’t have time to make corned beef and cabbage, I made Oriental Cabbage Salad with ramen noodles today! I know it is a bit of a stretch for St. Patrick’s Day, but at least it uses cabbage…and cabbage is green! Also, as a college student, ramen noodles are in generous supply!
I do have some Irish blood in me and I am quite proud of it! I like to think dying my hair red makes me even more Irish. However, I didn’t utilize the “Kiss me, I’m Irish” ploy today and since I don’t drink alcoholic beverages, I drank IBC® Root Beer instead. My Lucky Charms® cereal box was empty so I should have planned for that. I did pass on drinking any green milk–that’s just gross even if people claim the food coloring doesn’t change the taste.
The closest song I could find to being anything Irish, lucky, or green is “I’m Just a Lucky So-and-So” sung by Ella Fitzgerald. I really do like this fun little song! And it’s an extra bonus that the album art from the album Fine and Mellow is green!
Love the shirts!
Thanks! They are such fun!
