Happy St. Patrick's Day to all! There was a time where I got out and enjoyed the "green beer," parades, parties and all...but I think I will be cooped up inside - WORKING!!
Believe it or not...for being Irish, I don't think I even own any green clothing. It has never been one of my favorite colors - and when I was "out in the workforce", I usually added a few pins or fancy hat to celebrate the day. I should probably be "ex-communicated" from the Irish heritage or something, huh???
I hope everyone has a wonderful day - and to theson...can you get green beer in Egypt??? The daughter2 and her husband sent me the "mooning" leprechaun on "myspace", and I find it to be a perfect end to this post.
ERIN GO BRAGH!!
UPDATE:Michelle Obama requested that the water fountain at the White House have green dye introduced for this special day. Since Chicago has the knack of turning a river green - this gives them a "little taste of home" spirit. I say "You Go Michelle!"
The White House fountain is totally appropriate. After all, Barack is Irish.
ReplyDeleteLove the fountain - Go O'Bama!!
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing a green t-shirt and my shamrock necklace I got at last year's parade.
Is the green dye "government" green dye?
ReplyDeleteIf it is, it probably cost $100,000.00 to dye the fountain.
That's neat.. I hadn't heard why it was green just that it was.. I think it is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHappy St Paddy's Day!!
