St. Pat's 2012

We had our first St. Patrick's Day in Ireland and I really enjoyed myself!
We started getting in the celebrating mood the night before by making our own pizza's.
Saturday morning we had green shamrock shaped pancakes with mint chocolate icecream. :)
At noon we had normal food with green jello that had gummy snakes and marshmallows in it.
At supper we had salmon... but had to tint the rice!  I have to say food coloring in rice doesn't taste the greatest!
The rain decided to stop for the parade, yay!  Especially since the parade lasted 1.5 hours because there were sooooo many old cars in it, and there is an MC that says a blurp about every thing coming down the line!  The parade started with St. Patrick himself :) holding a wooden snake!  Guess we have alot to thank him for since he scared away all the snakes on this island.  Good man!

All in all, it was a fun St. Patrick's Day, any reason for a party in this house, we are game! As party means ice-cream!
