St. Patty's Day
Our St. Patrick's Day wasn't as festive as usual. It landed on a Saturday, and I was headed to Time Out for Women, which ruled out green breakfasts (and since it wasn't on a school day, there wasn't any fun green surprises in kids lunches either). The corned beef would have taken too long once I got home, so we just went out for dinner as a family. I did, however, make everyone change into something green (which paid off - we got 10% off our dinner because of it). And we did make homemade Shamrock shakes for a tasty treat. The next day I cooked the corned beef and made a yummy mint-ice-cream-brownie-oreo dessert. I was going to cook some cabbage and potatoes and irish soda bread when the beef was almost done, but then our power went out. It ended up staying off until 11 AM the next morning. Good thing the corned beef was already cooked enough - we ate that and bread and cheese and cabbage salad. And the dessert, of course. YUM!
