Happy St. Patrick's Day!

As with all things Irish, Alex and I love this holiday. We spent St. Patrick's day in Ireland in 2005 where we partied in Dublin. I will never forget the sea of green, orange, and white swarming the sidewalks while paper mache floats and bagpipers paraded down the street. We learned to dance the Irish jig, and listened to a pub full of drunk Irish people sing John Denver’s “Country Roads” at the top of their lungs. But best of all, we got to enjoy that crazy Irish pride coming from every direction.

For our celebration we made stew for dinner, sugar cookies for dessert (the best shape was the one that looked like St. Patrick), and played Destination Ireland!
