Bringing out the Irish in me...

Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day.  Probably one of my favorite holidays (mostly because of my obsession with beer!).  My Grandma was Irish and she sent us St. Patrick's Day cards every year.  I'm thinking maybe I should take over her tradition now that she has passed.  Who doesn't love getting a greeting card in the mail, a friendly hello with an artistic flare!  I'll add that to my to do list, maybe I can start making cards for Easter.


One of my best friend's birthday is today and what better way to celebrate than wearing green and taking part in the Irish festivities!  I stopped in at On The Verge in Guelph today and picked up a great gift and birthday card.  The card is by 'Bald Guy Greetings' and is probably one of the funniest cards I've ever seen.  Even if you are just looking for something to do, I recommend going in to this fantastic little store and reading their cards.  I promise it will bring a smile to your face!
The birthday gift I chose for her was a four leaf clover sterling silver necklace.  How appropriate!  I was so tempted to keep it for myself...

I've picked up a 6 pack of Mad Tom IPA by Muskoka Brewery for tonight - yum yum yum.  Check out the cup I'll be drinking from in the picture below - I picked this lovely up when i was in college and it still hasn't gone missing!!  It turns bright green when there is cold beer in it - ha!

Happy Pre-St. Patrick's Day to all my Irish readers (even if you are only Irish for a day!)
