Mani Monday
This week’s mani is all green inspired by St. Patrick’s Day! I used Holo Taco “Wicked Potion” set with the super magnet on my thumbnail, followed by “Wicked Potion” unmagnetized, “Lost in the Woods,” “Green Taffy,” and “Mint Mojito.” I love the variation in shades!
St. Patrick’s Day, Observed
Happy (early) St. Patrick’s Day!
We decided to celebrate today because it was the best day this week for a family feast. We started by setting the leprechaun trap…at this point, I can only assume that “Lucky” is taunting us!
Of course there were Lucky Charms:
And I made myself my favorite green drink this afternoon…the lavender matcha!
I love baking soda bread:
And we had our traditional corned beef dinner with all the fixin’s:
For dessert I made Guinness mousse to go with the Guinness cake Bunny baked:
This is truly one of my favorite dinners of the whole year!

A Trio of St. Louis Favorites for 3/14
Two days ago we celebrated Chicago on 3/12, and now it’s St. Louis’ turn…in honor of the original telephone area code for the metro area, we observed 314 Day!
We had a few St. Louis favorites…(frozen) Imo’s pizza for dinner, with the St. Louis classic, Fitz’s root beer:
And a homemade lemon gooey butter cake for dessert:
The celebratory season is far from over…tomorrow we’re having an early St. Patrick’s Day, and then the two March birthdays in our house within a week!
