Happy St. Patrick's Day
My grandpa died 4 years ago this month. He was a true Irishmen, in probably every sense of the word. At his funeral, we had shamrocks and a processional with a bagpiper. These shamrocks are the same ones from his service, growing contentedly in our kitchen.
In honor of this day, I am listening exclusively to Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, and The Pogues...i.e. it is rocking.
Lunch was festive. Here are some photos to make you jealous:

Irish Soda Bread
Corned Beef
Cabbage and Such
What a lovely composition
Dessert trio
Ginger Cake with Guiness
Now I am back at Aspen Grove, and we are going to watch The Secret of Kells. Perfect.
I hope your St. Paddy's day was just as grand.
