(well... yesterday was green day)

I promised Kevin a semi-traditional Irish meal for St. Patrick's Day. As I was walking up to the store (it was so beautiful outside yesterday!! yeah spring!!) to buy some corned beef, potatoes, and buttermilk, I saw a pack of teenagers all wearing green shirts. I thought to myself, why are all those kids dressed alike? Yeah, apparently my brain was not really functioning yet.

So I cooked up some corned beef and potatoes for us. I made Irish soda bread. I used King Arthur's recipe, which was remarkably similar to the recipe on the side of the buttermilk container. Kevin liked it and said it tasted good. I can't say that it was my favorite. While I like currants more than raisins, I'm not a big fan of either baked into things. (I'm very diligent about picking out raisins from cinnamon-raisin bagels... why can't someone just make cinnamon bagels?!).

Today is the last day of Spring Break and I have accomplished nothing on my to do list. So either today is going to be productive or Monday is going to suck.
