Happy St,. Patrick's Day, Darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                  It's a great day for the Irish; even if one is not genuinely Irish, everyone is on this special day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                    "Oh, the days of the Kerry dancing,                                                                                                                 "Oh, the ring of the piper's tune."

                                  David and I had our pre-St. Patrick's feast last night, with corned beef, boiled potatoes, carrots and cabbage.  And, of course, Irish soda bread, but none so good as my paternal grandmother's or Aunt Martha.  Aunt Martha got the recipe from granny!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                       So, read some James Joyce, enact Brian Friel, dance an Irish jig or wherever your fancy takes you on this day.

                                          And now I have a surprise for you--

                                    Here is Ella Logan, Broadway's original Sharon McLaren in "Finnian's Rainbow" singing the now iconic Irish song "How Are Things In Glocca Morra."  Enjoy!
