This one's for you, Mom!

Way back in the early 1900s ... a young lass sailed across the sea from a beautiful land to an unknown harbor... this brave girl was Anastasia Murray Mithchell, our grandmother. In honor of her, and the many other Irish family long gone from us, we eat, drink and dance around like silly fools celebrating the day of the green. Here's how we celebrated in the Arroyo household...i know, Arroyo, not so Irish..= ) We did a few irish jigs, sang Oh, Danny boy... ate green jello, and looked at photos of grandma Mitchell and the pics of our trip to Ireland in '99 (robert & me). This was our little party...we're having the real deal, corned beef & cabbage & irish soda bread ...my version, of course, this sunday with all the family...can't wait!
