I made this Irish Blessing long ago.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY.
TODAY, EVERYONE IS IRISH!
I created this one too with a dog image photographed from my Royal Book of Crests.

Green Pound Cake for St. Patrick's Day
St. Patrick's Day is March 17th so you have one whole week to buy the ingredients to make this green pound cake. The recipe makes two loaves. You probably have all of the ingredients on hand right now. The only things I don't have are buttermilk and avocado. Actually, I do have one avocado but need another one to make 1-1/2 cups. Market day is today so I'll buy several more. This looks good and the green color is natural without the addition of food coloring. Pistachio ice cream is green, isn't it? That would be good on the side. Yum. Everybody's Irish on St. Patrick's Day.Avocado Pound Cake
I think I'll eliminate one cup of sugar. I don't like things that are too sweet. I'm sure that won't make a difference in the baking chemistry, will it?

Happy St. Patrick's Day
I'm very late in posting this greeting as St. Patrick's Day will soon be over. A friend came for lunch and I honestly don't know what happened to the rest of the day. There's plenty of daylight left for me to try and do something constructive though. Wish me luck.
Greeting found on Google Images

Irish Proverb for St. Patrick's Day
I scanned the dog from my antiquarian book on Royal Crests. After inserting the quote and putting it on a bed of shamrocks it became perfect for St. Patrick's Day.

St. Patrick's Day Illustrated Quote with Dog
Green Tea Latte for St. Patrick's Day
*Matcha green tea and milk, lightly sweetened served over ice*
I'm having my morning coffee right now but if I were out and about I might consider stopping at Starbucks® for an iced green tea latte. It looks very refreshing, doesn't it? Everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day.

Horace, The Housebroken Irish Hare
This photo is from a delightful article that appeared in LIFE Magazine back in 1956.
It is the usual fate of the Irish hare, a wild strain betwixt the Scottish and European varieties, to sleep by day in the hedgerows and by night to scurry through plowed fields in search of leafy delicacies. To live long he must be a wary hare, on guard always against man, his guns and dogs.
This might have been the life of Horace, the loveable hare, had he not fallen three years ago (1953) into the hands of Cecil S. Webb, director of the Dublin Zoo. Webb and his wife took Horace into their home to study the ways of small wild animals. They kept him on ... because they had acquired a wonderful pet, as intelligent, playful and domesticated as any dog.
There are many more delightful photos for your viewing pleasure in the article and link mentioned above. This is an early St. Patrick's Day present for you! Enjoy. xo

My Only Visible Snowdrops
I covered this clump of snowdrops before the first Nor'easter a couple of weeks ago. Since then we have had two more so I never took this cloche off. It really came in handy and the spring bulbs look very happy in their own special hothouse. My other galanthus are buried under about a foot of snow but they will be fine once all the snow I shoveled on top of them melts. They are the earliest spring bulbs to bloom and they are very hardy and they come by their name honestly. I plan on enjoying this sunny weekend with beautiful blue skies and no clouds. These sweet little flowers can double as my good luck shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day. xo

Look Closely for Shamrocks
Growing alongside the rosemary cutting, you will see three tiny shamrocks. They came up out of nowhere just in time for St. Patrick's Day on Friday. Aren't they sweet?

A new use for cabbages and what a great idea. The limelight hydrangeas are perfect against the green hollowed out cabbage right now. It doesn't have to be Easter or St. Patrick's Day, cabbages are inexpensive and available all year long. The rabbit pushing the wheelbarrow is perfect. Love it. xo
Photo removed per request of owner. Sorry!

Irish Shamrock (Trifolium dubium)
"May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow, and may trouble avoid you wherever you go." An Irish Blessing
Happy St. Patrick's Day. Everyone's Irish today.
The Official Irish Shamrock is Trifolium dubium. It is pictured in an Irish Belleek bowl planted in genuine Irish dirt.

Webster says Goodnight
Have a good sleep tonight so you'll be fit as a fiddle for St. Patrick's Day and don't forget to wear something green tomorrow. I took this photo with my new iPad.
