I'm 2nd generation American - the grandparents came from Ulster. St. Paddy's has always been quite the big deal in my family.
I started the morning cooking an an Irish breakfast for the family - sausages, bacon, egg, toast, broiled tomato, tea
Then sang at the kids' class
then had a bunch of writers over for brunch with Jameson & Guinness with singing and cavorting
then the kids came home and it's homework time
I'm cooking a shepherd's pie for dinner!
