Have a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day! I am thankful for all the people, like St. Patrick, who have shared the amazing news of how much God loves us. That’s a great thing to celebrate. 🙂 Slainte, Lisa

It was a big weekend around here. A local St. Patrick’s Day parade, dinner and music at McMahon’s, making lots of soda bread and scones (and the eating of them afterwards!). Hope you all have a blessed St. Patrick’s Day today, and enjoy your friends and family! 🙂 Lisa

With St. Patrick’s Day approaching on Monday, and stores everywhere filled to the brink with green tacky leprechaun-y things, my mind naturally turns to……..Ireland! I bet you never would have guessed that from me, huh?! 🙂 Which of course leads me to the time-consuming YouTube, which of course led me to this driving in Ireland video. It’s supposed to be humorous tutorial, but it just succeeds in making me long to be driving over there. We spend so much of our trips in cars, squeezing down the narrow roads, always amazed at some of the roads we travel upon, and even more amazed at the places they lead us to. Enjoy indulging in a little wishful thinking with me. Slainte, Lisa
