An Old Irish Blessing
May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

St. Patrick's Day is a fun day at our house. It starts with a breakfast of scrambled green eggs (add blue and green food coloring until you get the desired color) and ham with toast and ends with green Angel Food cake. My grandmother was part Irish and she actually shared her birthday with St. Patrick's Day. To celebrate her birthday, we always had Angel Food cake, with green food coloring added to the water before mixing. So, now as a way to remember her and celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we have green Angel Food Cake for dessert each year.
Today we had rice and beans for dinner, so I made the rice green. Also, since I made this morning's bread in my bread machine, I made it green as well. It's such a fun and inexpensive way to celebrate. There are so many different color options, you can use these ideas for many celebrations.
