I personally do not like the look, smell or taste of cornbeef so I do not intend to have it tonight. DH has poker tonight so it is just me and E for dinner. Anyone else planning on not having cornbeef?
Definitely not... despite Irish heritage in our blood, I DO NOT like corned beef... I actually had an irish woman in our playgroup last week and she said corned beef isn't a true irish tradition anyway. More of an american thing...
I dressed LO in green today, that's our way of celebrating
I don't eat any red meat - so I'm not. (Much to DH's disapointment, I told him to get a sandwich for lunch!!!) I actually have no idea what is for dinner....

For me it will be leftover chicken a la king. E will probably have a PB&J or mac & cheese.

We are hosting a crawfish boil at our house this evening, so that'll be the main thing being eaten. However, I'll be having chicken since I don't like crawfish.
I believe corned beef is a British/American tradition, and not an Irish one. If you want a traditional Irish dinner to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, go with a fish chowder and Boxty. That's closer to Ireland than corned beef!

I normally would, but my SIL is in town and today is her birthday and she doesn't want it. We are going to Benihana tonight. I'll probably make it this weekend for us.
Not I- no time to cook it after work. I'm have a St. Patty's potluck instead with spinach and artichoke dip, cheddar and beer dip, green beer, salad and a 12-inch St. Patty's cookie.

We are not having it TONIGHT. But, we do have an annual dinner party where we cook corned beef- one with Guiness and one in stock. This year, we are doing 2 Guiness and one stock b/c it has become so popular. I never liked it as a kid, but now it is awesome! We also don't cook it with potatoes and cabbage- those we cook each separatly and it makes a huge difference in flavor!

This, minus the burgers. Although I would love to have some of that!

I'm making shepard's pie on Saturday
Not us...we will probably have bison burgers or leftover spaghetti.
I'm not really a fan of corned beef or boiled cabbage.
No cornbeef, cabbage or any of those other "traditional" meals.

I have never heard of it either. I always thought of it as another excuse for Americans to get drunk.

I am not an iota Irish. We've never had cornbeef, period, much less on St. Paddy's Day. We're having baked salmon.
No cornbeef for us! We are having potato soup, I figure that is Irish enough lol.
