I love St. Patricks Day!!!!!

I always have. I'm about as un-irish as you are going to get but there is just something about wearing green and chasing leprechauns that really excites me. When my son was in preschool he brought some "magic beans" home. I let him plant them in the yard. Well you can imagine his surprise, and mine, when those beans grew lollipops. Every year on St. Patricks day there is a fresh harvest of lollipops. He picks them all and then they keep growing throughout the day. The more he shares them with others, the more lollipops will grow. Its a lot of fun. You know what else is fun about St. Patricks day? You can buy a six pack of Guinness on sale at Safeway for $7.99. "Now what," you ask, "would you do with all that Guinness?" Um, I can't believe you would have to ask me that. You make a roast. Duh.
