Happy St Patrick’s Day!

Happy St Patrick’s Day!

 

When we lived in Delray Beach, our tradition was to celebrate with the other revelers by going to the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade. After the parade we either wandered to a nearby pub or to someone’s home for corned beef and cabbage!

Whether or not you’re Irish, you can still have one of my favorite St Patrick’s Day meals…corned beef and cabbage. The corned beef goes in our slow cooker along with cabbage, small Yukon gold potatoes, celery and carrots. 

 

In case you don’t have a parade to attend, or love bagpipes as I do, here are some photos and a video from previous Delray Beach St Patrick’s Day Parades. 








I may not be Irish but does it really matter??!!

I agree Kat Palmiotti I did my share of heavy St Patrick's Day celebrations when we lived in Delray.

Good morning, Kathy... is it possible not to have a good time on St. Patrick's Day? I think not! Your corned beef meal sounds delicious! My office is having its annual lunch today with green food. I'm bringing a key lime pie to which I added some green coloring to make it more green.

Nina Hollander, Broker You made a pie????? We had our corned beef and cabbage with Yukon gold potatoes and carrots and it was delish!!!

Kathy Streib LOL, Kathy! Yes... even I splash out every so often and bake something... it's cookies that I don't even attempt to bake! :) I might have to find some corned beef and make it this weekend.

Good morning Kathy. Love corned beef and cabbage. Just had some last evening and will be having the left overs for  lunch. And, never fail to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Three years ago we added a reason to celebrate with the birth of our granddaughter. And, the 18th is our anniversary. Enjoy your day.

Wayne Martin Happy Birthday to your granddaughter!!!! I never realized that they pour some kind of orange liquid into the river in Chicago to turn it green.

Good Morning Kathy Streib 

Corned Beef and Cabbage is one of my favorite meals. Actually, had one at the local church Saturday and will be having another this Tuesday...yum, yum, yum. Watch out for leprechauns.

Hi Doug Dawes I made ours in the slow-cooker and it was delicious!!! We'll definitely have leftovers tomorrow.

I no longer eat meat...but if I did, I think I would head out tonight for some corned beef and cabbage. LOVE!

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty While I did have corned beef, I love the veggies more than the meat. The slow cooked carrots were great.

Hello Kathy - I can certainly appreciate traditions.  Although admittedly I don't always participate in many, that doesn't diminish their importance in the greater scheme of things that interrelatedness and interconnectedness is a part of everyday life.

Michael Jacobs This was part of my life when we moved to Delray. Our neighbors who became our family were big time celebrators of St Patrick's Day...and all other occasions to party!!!

Kathy, we had a very large Parade in downtown Denver Saturday.  I was going to go, but was around 29 degrees at 9:30 when it started.    Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hi Kathy, I hope you enjoyed your St. Patrick's Day.  This holiday holds a special place in my heart since I have some Irish in me and marked in the parade when I was young. My sisters and I took baton lessons and then marched in this and other holiday parades in the Boston area.

Barbara Michaluk What a wonderful memory. I had to "master" a bit of the baton when I was on my high school drill team. I had to learn a bit when I was the Drill Captain.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Kathy Streib! Your parade tradition sounds like a blast, and who can say no to corned beef and cabbage? It doesn’t matter if you’re Irish or not; it’s all about gathering, having fun, and enjoying some good food. Thanks for sharing those memories—cheers to making more today! 🍀💚🥳

Hi Kathy:

Hope you had a fun St. Patrick's Day.

No, you don't need to be Irish to celebrate today and there are certainly plenty of ways to celebrate. No corned beef for me, however - I'm not a fan at all. I've been told there's a wee bit of Irish in me on my Dad's side of the family. Sadly he is no longer around to ask more about this.

Loved the photos and the video.

I think this is the first year I can remember that I didn't have corned beef dinner for St. Patrick's Day. As you know, we are on a cruise and the green desserts were amazing! Many people came prepared with green clothing. We did not.
