Irish Shamrocks
This weekend people everywhere are going to be getting their green on while they celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. There will be parades, pub crawls and a lot of green everywhere to carry on this Irish tradition. One of my favorite memories of St. Patrick’s Day is of our family traveling to New York City to see The Lion King on Broadway and then watching the St. Patrick’s Day Parade march down 5th Avenue. It was quite a spectacle. My kids were young and had so much fun wearing green beads and shamrock glasses while the floats and bands went by. If you have never been to New York City to watch a parade, put it on your bucket list. It’s a great time! This week I thought I would share my favorite green foods to kick off the celebration. Happy Friday!

Hi Leslie!
Loved your fun St. Patrick’s Day ideas! I made the jello squares for a bunch of kids today, only to find that the adults did more of the eating. How funny! I couldn’t find green jelly leaves anywhere…only orange or fruit flavored. I was really trying to keep with the green theme today.
Keep up the great work. I love your creativity.
