Happy Saint Patrick's Day!



The Day Our Hearts Rejoice
The month is March, the day Seventeen.
Let's skip and dance on Erin's green, All on St. Patrick's Day.

~Traditional Gaelic Blessing~

May the road rise to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face;

the rains fall soft upon your fields.

And until we meet again,

may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

I have never been one to drink very much, and it can often be cold in Minnesota in mid-March, so the whole idea of standing outside and watching a parade holds little appeal for me.  Because of this, March 17 is really just another day on the calendar, other than that I have a family member who celebrates her birthday today.

Nevertheless, it is interesting to see how others observe it.  Does Saint Patrick's Day have any significance to you?  If so, how do you celebrate it?  Please feel free to share your comments below.
