Happy (almost) St. Patrick’s Day! I haven’t missed a St. Patrick’s Day celebration since I started blogging almost 5 years ago, and I don’t intend on starting now. This year is extra special, because I finally did 23 and Me and learned that I am almost entirely British/Irish. This definitely explains why I love beer so much, right?!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!
As an ex-Chicagoan, I feel very strongly about this fun, festive holiday. Some of my favorite memories from my years in Chicago are St. Patrick’s Day celebrations with friends – going to see the green river, starting the day off with some beer pong at 10am, and walking down the streets surrounded by people absolutely spilling out of every bar. The first year we spent in the Bay Area, I woke up on St. Patrick’s Day weekend expecting everyone to be out and partying – instead, everything was totally silent! I realized quickly that I’d have to make my own St. Patrick’s Day fun out here – which is perfectly fine with me (I’m a little too old to be doing it up with a day full of green beer and Irish car bombs, anyways). I never miss the chance to celebrate with chocolate and booze – two of my very favorite things!
Classic, no frills Dreyer’s mint chocolate chip with a plastic spoon. Just the best!
Hi guys! How’s your week going? We’ve been having some seriously California winter-weather here – lots of rain and temps actually below 50 (gasp!!) so we haven’t been up to too much besides LOTS of couch time. Which sometimes is just the best, right?! Here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!
St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, and this slow cooker corned beef and cabbage looks like the perfect accompaniment to fudgy chocolate stout brownies!
These peanut butter and jelly fudge brownies look unbelievable. I just want to peanut-butter-and-jelly-fy everything.
Happy (early) St. Patrick’s Day!! What better way to celebrate the Irish than with the richest, fudgiest brownies of all time? With booze, of course. Who do you think I am?
I absolutely love St. Patrick’s Day – it’s one of my very favorite holidays to make a festive treat for my blog. I love drinking stout beer and whisky, wearing green, and being super pale all year around, so an entire day dedicated to such things is highly exciting to me.
