Ireland has always held a special place in my heart. When I was little it was a magical land of castles and legends. I’m Irish by ancestry on both side of my family and I remember my mom always playing Irish songs on St. Patrick’s Day.
The summer between my senior year of high school and my freshmen year of college I got to spend three months in beautiful Northern Ireland and two summers ago Joel and I went to Dublin for a week. I’m always dreaming of going back. When I think of St. Patrick’s Day, I think of the beautiful Irish poems and songs. This year I found myself listening to the Clancy Brothers. Here’s one of my favorites, Finnegan’s Wake…
Yesterday we celebrated with steak and Guinness pie and chocolate cake. I hope your St. Patrick’s Day was sprinkled with an extra bit of luck!
