Up until a few years ago, I believed I had Irish ancestors. Believing so always gave me a feeling of superiority on St. Patrick's Day because I was more authentic than everyone else pretending to be. I could say, "Kiss me, I'm Irish" and it was the truth. Then my aunt told me that we are actually Scottish and that was the end of that. Anyway, I still like St. Patrick's Day and in honor of the holiday, I thought I would make a list of some of my favorite Ireland inspired things.
1. Celtic Music - For the record, I was into this long before everyone else was. Plus, I really like the phrase Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral.
2. Irish Tipsy Cake - Chocolate cake soaked in a mixture of butter and Irish Whiskey.
3. Lucky Charms - They're magically delicious.
4. Pierce Brosnan - I think this one is self explanatory.
5. Irish Brogues - Very pleasant to listen to.
6. Guinness - Another self explanatory one.
7. Leprechauns - I know they don't really exist, but it's fun to imagine.
8. Stepdancing - Love the costumes, love the wigs.
9. Four-leaf clovers - I found one once. I think it brought me luck.
10. Chasing rainbows - You never know when you'll find the pot of gold at the end.
You crack me up!
