I hope everyone is wearing sufficient green today. I love random reasons to dress up or wear something themed, so I am definitely wearing green today. I pulled out my green earrings too! I’m not sure if I’ll be having green beverages tonight, since I am going to my sister’s place for dinner, but I’ll see if she has something that will make my drink more festive.
This is a repeat celebration though, as I hosted a kick-off party last weekend for my summer soccer team, and we had a “rainbows and leprechauns” theme in honour of St Patty’s day this week. I had some fun decorating and making food for the event.
With the help of my step-daughter, we made jello-crusted marshmallows (a Pinterest find) and a rainbow of fruit and veggies.
I found enough pieces of coloured paper in my stash to create some garlands (again with the help of my step-daughter).
And then I found some gold coins in my costume box from when I hosted a pirate party years ago. They may have had a skull and crossbones on one side, but if you don’t look closely, they can totally be leprechaun gold! I bought chocolate gold coins too, so part way through the party I had to put away the plastic ones so nobody would get the two confused!
I hope everyone has a great St Patty’s Day!

Love the St. Patty’s spirit! I’ll have to try that marshmallow recipe next year.

It’s super easy. But be sure to use tongs to get the coloured marshmallows out of the jello powder, or you’ll have stained hands. 🙂
