Well it is officially St. Patrick’s day! I have not planned any fun activities to do pertaining to St. Patty’s since my daughter is still too young to enjoy… but I can’t WAIT till next year! I LIVE for doing all of those fun themed activities! I swear that’s the reason I wanted to be a teacher and a mother! ;D Can you blame me?! There is SO much fun to be had on holidays!
So since I won’t be doing any activities I figured I would at least do some simple green foods I could whip up easily! So for lunch (and probably leftovers for dinner!) I made some creamy and chunky broccoli soup from my Momma’s recipe. I even added some carrot pieces as my pieces of gold from the end of the rainbow! To go with it I baked some crescent rolls and sliced some ham. It was very delicious!
I also whipped up some pistachio pudding I forgot I had in the cabinet until I cleaned and reorganized them yesterday! To top off the pudding I added some whipped cream and sprinkles to make it festive!
To be honest, it had been years since I had pistachio pudding and I forgot how much I like it! And it was just festive enough to make me happy yet it was SO simple!
Have a happy St. Patrick’s Day today! And let me know if you have any other quick and easy green ideas prepared for today! I’d love to hear them!

Oh that would have been nice to have! Didn’t get to go anywhere fun (no babysitter) and I didn’t have any here at home, so I guess it will have to wait till next year! 😦 I hope you had one to make up for it!

Gave booz up for Lent but made green beer for family with a few drops of green food coloring. Always a hit.
