Wishing you always…
Walls for the wind,
A roof for the rain
And tea beside the fire.
Laughter to cheer you,
Those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

St. Patrick with Serpent

Teagan loved watching the rebroadcast of the parades today.  She started trying to dance along with the step dancers when they came on.  Shame that there isn’t a dance school close by, but we can work on that.  Ashlin started getting down to some of the fiddle music too.  Irish stew and home made soda bread for dinner tomorrow! Yay!

May you have all the happiness
and luck that life can hold—
And at the end of all your rainbows
may you find a pot of gold.

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day to all!  Someone needs to have a whiskey for me!  Stu and I went to the New Haven parade on Sunday – a little late and with some parking issues – and followed it up with a corned beef sandwich at Tommy Sullivan’s in Branford.  There was so much corned beef in the sandwich that I ended up taking home enough to make TWO more!   I might even swing past Bill’s later today for some more corned beef.  Bill’s is really teh best!  Maybe they’ll let me dash in, get a to go dinner, and dash out… 

I haven’t had a chance to go through the pictures that I took, hoping a few turn out ok…  They’ll be up on flickr soon!

Wishing you a rainbow
For sunlight after showers—
Miles and miles of Irish smiles
For golden happy hours—
Shamrocks at your doorway
For luck and laughter too,
And a host of friends that never ends
Each day your whole life through!
