Colcannon

"Did you eat colcannon
Made with lovely pickled cream
And the greens and scallions mingled
Like a picture in a dream
Did you ever make a hole on top
To hold the melting flake
Of the creamy-flavoured butter
That your mammy used to make"

Have you ever tried it?

Decorating for St Patrick's Day

All of the Valentine decor has been packed away and I brought out a few St Pat's decorations!

Faux cupcakes....

I recently hopped on the bandwagon and bought some faux cupcakes.  I ordered from Suzzie Q's Treats for Valentine's Day and just received this adorable cupcake for St Patty's Day.  An Easter one also arrived!

These are packaged very well, mailed quickly, are inexpensive, and a perfect little non-edible treat to use in a holiday vignette!

Yes, I am pulling out a few St Patty's decorations - Sadly, I think Pirish might be cancelled this year.
