Is anyone parading today? We’re going to a friend’s house who lives near the north side (Chicago) parade route. One of them even comes by his Irish honestly! We’ll get there early, they’re making soda bread and other treats pre-parade. The weather looks to be chilly but not raining or snowing, I’ll take it. Since I no longer imbibe I’ll probably opt for some strong hot tea to keep the cold away.

Drink green beer, lots of whiskey, or lots of tea and kiss your blarney stone today!
