Happy Saint Patrick's Day!








It was E's idea to spend fun Friday at home this week, and it was very enjoyable. We started out the day with green eggs. Fresh eggs are actually more orange than yellow, so it takes a lot of dye to get them green. And then they are not so kelly green as much as pukey green. Sort of like the color of snots. They tasted good though.

We were bummed that the New York St. Patrick's Day Parade was not on TV this year, but we did find a cool special on the history of St. Patrick's Day on the History Channel which we all enjoyed.

We worked quite a bit on our Hungary display for the International Fair. Here is E showing off the bit he copied about Rubik's cube. He is quite proud that he wrote so much in a much shorter time than we both anticipated. He is also showing off his leprechaun pin.

I made an Irish Soda Bread to bring to a St. Patrick's Day party we were invited to. Everyone here was very disappointed to have to give it away, but everyone at the party seemed to enjoy it. And I will make another one just for us this weekend. It really was good.

The party was very enjoyable. Thanks S and D for inviting us, you have good friends who we always enjoy visiting with. We were happy to be included. The food was great too, and we were thrilled to come home with some ham for yummy sandwiches tomorrow. We look forward to spending time with you guys again real soon.

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!
