Day...I lost count of - I'll go Crazy if I Don't go Crazy Tonight

In true everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day fashion, Happy St. Patrick's Day all! I have my Guinness so I'm all set. Also in honor of the holiday, today's shake was the shake to beat all shakes...drum roll please...McDonald's Shamrock Shake!

It's frothy, minty goodness earned 5 straws! I love this day, but it makes me miss Ireland even more. Dublin was one of my favorite places to visit and I wish I could go back, and then visit more of Ireland. Oh well, someday hopefully.

Today was chock-full of St. Paddy's fun...I drove down to Plymouth, had lunch at some bar on the water that had Irish music and step dancers and all kinds of festivities, had a delicious Irish Fish and Chips (I was going to have the traditional Boiled Dinner, but they got me with the Guinness-flavored then fried fish...magical words Guinness and fried). Then I headed off to the British Imports store where I hoped to get some real Cadbury's or other UK chocolate and/or some Digestives, but they were closed and didn't look like they had much of a selection anyway. I also took in the Pilgrim Hall Musuem...I believe that is the one Pilgrim-related place I had never been to. I took a swing down to Plymouth Rock and the park and then headed home. All in all, not a bad day and the weather was beautiful! Can't wait for 60 degrees tomorrow!
