  45. Every year we do the same thing, we go to my in-laws and my father-in-law cooks a ton of corned beef and cabbage. The rest of us (there's a lot of family) are responsible for making an Irish or green side dish or desert. Some people get pretty creative as to what they dye green! The adults also have the annual green beer toast (the kids have the option of green kool-aid).

    ReplyDelete
  46. I don't really celebrate! All my friends and family are far away... I think next year I'll make cabbage/corned beef though I'm pretty sure my 8 year old will stick up his nose at it LOL! ;) Worth a try though! ;)
