Yes, we're going out to our favourite Italian restaurant, no joke. :D :lol:

We have an Irish last name as hubby's now-deceased father's father was born in Ireland somewhere. County Tyrone I think. Anyway, MIL always harps on about our daughter "being Irish", to which I always point out (I'm so mean! :D :lol: ) that she's only 25% of Irish descent, but she is 50% pure-blood English, and has a British passport. Hehe... :D

The Washington Post actually has an article on how to make "St. Patrick's Day Tacos".

What's the difference between St. Patrick's Day and Cinco de Mayo?















On St. Patrick's Day everyone wishes they were Irish

:D

According to today's New York Times, these people have sold $2million worth of "real Irish dirt" to Americans since setting their business last year.
