The Wearing of the Green
It is the wearing of the Green for March 17Th St. Patrick's Day
Do you remember when you were in school that if you did not have on Green on St. Paddy's Day you got pinched???
One year we surprised our Daughters with small green corsages to wear to school. They loved them and had so much fun with them.
Tomorrow I am cooking the cabbage and new red potatoes for our dinner. As we do not like corned beef I am cooking a small pork tenderloin. I have always cooked the potatoes and cabbage for St. Paddy's day.
What will you be doing??? Do you wear green, dye your hair green, cook some special foods. It is a fun day!!
I wish all of you a Great Tomorrow!!!!

Hi Daisy, Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too... I have an Irish connection. You will have to read my blog tomorrow.
We will definitely wear green (so we won't get pinched) --and we'll have our cabbage and corned beef. YUM!!!!
Have a great day.
Hugs,
Betsy
Whoops---I called you Daisy instead of Mary... I guess I was looking at your blog title. DUH---Senior Moment for sure!!! Sorry about that.

Mary,
I should have picked up some green hairspray to surprise the boys, but honestly didn't think of it. Wouldn't they have ben shocked?
Happy St. Patrick's Day, my friend.
Blessings,
Mary

I got everybody green shirts but...one didn't "go over" and will be returned. I'm personally looking forward to April Fool's Day ;)
Yes! I do remember now with the poke in the memory that you just provided. The dreaded pinch.
Have a wonderful day, Mary!
Good Morning mary,
"HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY"to you also. I have a green shirt on and my pajama bottoms have some green in them. Both the girls wore some greesn to School also. I remember if you didn't wear green to School you would get pinched on St. Paddy's DAy. I always tried to wear green since I didn't want to get pinched. I thouht about cooking some cabbage, but our girls don'e like it, so I guess I won't be doing any Irish cooking today. We will probably have leftover Chicken Noodle Soup and sandwiches for our supper tonight. Take care my friend and have a great day. May GOD Bless you and yours.
Love,
Karen H.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day Mary !
Hi Mary, Happy St. Patrick's Day to you. Your dinner sounds so good.
Today I put on a green blouse and a St. Patrick's Day pin to wear to Quilt Guild.
Hugs karen
I don't own anything green...so I stayed home so nobody could pinch me.
I made chicken for dinner....nothing Irish about that!
I guess I am an old stick in the mud Mary.I have never done anything special for St. Patricks Day.
Happy St. Patricks Day!
blessings, kari & kijsa
