Whew, it's been a long week, and I've been under the weather a bit. I'll try to catch up next week. But this is about as close as I'll get to Saint Patrick's goodies tonight!
It's probably for the best. St Patrick's is probably the worst day to get a decent pint, with all of the crowds, and this year the rain as well. Of course, this doesn't mean that I'm not prepared to do some celebrating at home!
Yes, I know that Tetley's really doesn't qualify, but it's one of the few beers that the Missus thinks even tastes decent. I also need to apologize to Howie from A Foodie's Eye View. I'd meant to link the St. Patrick's Day Recipes blog entry from his Recipe Search Engine. Su-Mi-Ma-Sen Howie-san; still I think anytime's a good time for a Boxty, right?
Best wishes for a Happy and Safe Saint Paddy's Day!
Happy Saint Patrick's Day to you too! Get well soon Kirk! I hope that you aren't under the weather for too long.

Hi PE - Thanks! I'm just a bit tired is all.
Hi DCCF - I forgot about those Shamrock Shakes - I'm lactose intolerant - so that may create more of a problem.
Hi Howie - Same back at ya Howie!

My St. Patrick's Day was taking care of my sick 1/4 Irish son. I didn't even get a chance to tip a Guiness, only had a Bass Ale in the fridge.

Hey Jack - Hopefully, you'll make up for that soon!
