Happy St. Patrick's Day, y'all! I hope you all enjoy a pint of nice (GREEN) beer and eat some corned beef and cabbage. (What is "corned" beef, anyway?)
It's so much fun here in New Orleans during St. Patrick's Day. The weekend before the actual holiday, there is a giant parade held in the Irish Channel. They throw beads and other silly plastic catches like during Mardi Gras, but they also throw cabbages so you can go home and cook! Well, they don't actually throw the cabbages, they more hand them to you, but you get the idea.
I was squeezed in inappropriate places by men in kilts - I let them get away with it simply because they were bagpipe players. What a fun time with friends!
So, enjoy the day. Don't forget to wear green, watch out for flying cabbages, and beware the pipers. You just never know what those crazy Irish will do...

Wish I could have a green beer with you today. St. Paddy's is one of my favorite days of the year!! I've only got a few weeks left and then it's on!
