Talk about the party you're planning!| Our annual St. Patrick's Day party | | My extended family is Irish and they have a party either the weekend before or the weekend after St. Patrick's Day ever year. I have not gone in about 5 years though. This year they decided to have it at my late grandfathers house and it will probably be the last party/holiday that will be held there since they are going to be selling the house soon. Do you have an all out celebration for days like St. Patrick's Day or is it just another day to you? | |
| | Awkward Situation | | So last night my boyfriend and I went out to a St Patrick's Day party thrown by his friend's girlfriend at her farm.We were having a good time, talking and laughing and I went out to the kitchen where most of the group was congregated to grab my purse and cell phone. I was flipping through my phone, glancing around the room debating whether or not I should just introduce myself when I caught sight of a girl standing with my boyfriend's best friend, Marc. I couldn't figure out where I knew her from, and kept glancing over my shoulder at her, when it finally clicked in. It was my boyfriend's ex! She doesn't live here, but she comes in for work frequently. She's friends with all the people at the party as they all work in the same industry. I've never actually met her, but had seen enough pictures to know exactly what she looks like.It was already awkward enough for me being a party where all the people that are there are friends, and I really only know them through my boyfriend and would be more inclined to call them acquaintances and not necessarily friends, but to have her show up at the party unexpectedly was a lot.I think I... | |
| | Happy St. Patrick's day. | | Eat Me, I'm Irish!
These classic dishes from the Emerald Isle are perfect for a St. Patrick's Day party
Corned Beef and Cabbage, don'nt forget the beer!!!arty where all the people that are there are friends, and I really only know them through my boyfriend and would be more inclined to call them acquaintances and not necessarily friends, but to have her show up at the party unexpectedly was a lot.I think I handled the situation gracefully. I got very outgoing, talked to everyone and kept a big smile on my face at all times, but it was very difficult. I spent the entire night wondering why they would have invited her and then not given us a head's up that she might show up.Today when we left we started talking and he told me he'd screwed up, that he was given a head's up earlier this week but didn't say anything because he figured I'd back out. I was so mad at him, mostly about the fact that he didn't say anything, but even more that he had lied about whether or not he knew last night.Ok.. I feel better now that I've ranted. | |
| | Saint Patrick's Day | | Hello, everyone. With St. Patrick's Day coming up; I'm curious about how you celebrate it, if you do. My favorite way to celebrate it is to each corned beef and cabbage and watch Darby O'Gill And The Little People. Are there parades? If so, do you attend? Does anyone have a St. Patrick's Day party? And, how many of you are Irish...of course I am...every Saint Patrick's Day. LOL | |
| | St. Patrick's Day Cake? | | I volunteered to make a cake for my friend's St. Patrick's Day party. For his birthday, I made a cake that looked that it was made out of metal complete with studs and silver paint. What can I say, the guy is a huge fan of metal music.So what I was wondering was, what should I do for the St. Patrick's Day cake that is a bit non-traditional? I already have the idea to make a chocolate stout cake, but what about the decorations? Any help you guys could give me, would be much appreciated. | |
| | St. Patrick's Day Celebration Ideas | | Hey everyone!My friend is planning to throw a St. Patrick's Day party, but we need help thinking of a movie to watch and a place to go to dinner. What are your St. Patrick's Day plans and do you have any suggestions for us? | |
| | What will you do to celebrate St Patrick's Day??? | | St Patrick's day is all about loving being Irish and I am. For many, it's a day to go out and get as drunk as possible yet still be able to make it to work the next day! An Irishmen is never really drunk as long as he/she can hold onto a blade of grass and not fall off the earth - saw that on a plaque in a Irish pub!Every city celebrates it in different ways. When I lived in Boston, there was a fun parade and lots of family activities. The city of Chicago dyes the river bright green! I don't drink so I'll be celebrating by making an Irish dinner for a few friends and relaxing at home. How about you? | |
| | Celebrating St. Patrick's Day... | | So, tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day…the day of green, leprechauns, pots of gold and celebration. Many ppl take the day very seriously, while others simply see it as a day of fun pinching ppl for not wearing green. For most ppl leprechauns are folklore along with the pots of gold at the end of the rainbow but for some Irish ppl, it’s as real as anything else. Personally, I like the holiday, I find it a fun and happy holiday. I don’t go out drinking but I do try to wear green. I can remember when I was in school everyone would ask if you were wearing green and if you weren’t, boy did you get pinched. LOL So, what does St. Patrick’s Day mean to you? Do you do anything special for the day? Do you believe in the whole leprechauns and pots of gold? Have you ever found a four leaf clover?[b]**AT PEACE WITHIN**~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~[/b]

| | What are your plans for St. Patrick's Day? | | I'm wondering what other mylotters are doing for this holiday. Do you go out and celebrate? Do you treat it as just another day? I have always loved this holiday, probably because green is my favorite color. I really get to have fun with this! Last year, I dressed in green, had the shamrock headband and necklace, and hung shamrocks all over my house. This year, I will probably do it again. I just love this holiday. Do you wear green? Have you ever been pinched for not wearing green? What does this holiday meant to you? | |
