Kiss Me Even if I'm Not Irish!

St. Patrick's Day - 2011.

While there were a few unable to join us, we had what you might call a full house for our annual St. Patrick's Day celebration this year. Next year we are going to try a new seating arrangement!


The tables seemed a mile long and things were still tight for the 15 folks at dinner.First course, Potato Leek soup. I love this recipe so make it as much for myself as for others.Then comes the Guiness Beef Stew. Yum!






Soda Bread. And finally, the corned beef, cabbage and red potatoes. 3 large roasts, 8 heads of cabbage and several pounds of potatoes.

Irish coffee (Lar will get subsequent orders for these in years to come!) with homemade Irish potatoes (thanks Ray!) and yummy cookies (thanks Terry!) for desert.

Later, the evening included Irish dancing (thanks Julia!)

time for family and friends



And just kickin' back and enjoying. As they say, HAPPY ST PATRICK'TS DAY....????????????


I set aside a prize for anyone noticing the banner that declared it with a T - but no one did.

Maybe it was the green beer and the Irish Coffee.
