  • Do you think you can even give LO corned beef and cabbage? This is a totally serious question for you BLW mamas. I assume cabbage is super gassy, but you could do boiled carrots or potatoes. What about the meat?

  • We tend to stay home and avoid St. Patty's Day like the plague because it's a total PITA around here (and neither of us has any Irish ancestry whatsoever).  There is a massive St. Patty's Day parade that passes 1 block from our house.  Parking is a nightmare all weekend because you can't park on the parade route (one year we spent 45 minutes looking for a space and couldn't find one and another year when we had a space, our car was parked in until 7 pm on Sunday), everyone is hammered and throwing beer cans/bottles everywhere (including in our yard), and the parade was a total let-down the year I went.  Bah humbug!

    They leave footprints behind... They have turned the milk green, drawn on our framed pictures, TPed the playroom, flipped over furniture. It's all in good fun. My 5 year old is determined to catch one this year! He comes up with some outlandish ideas. Yesterday he spent the afternoon making gold coins to use as bait. Super cute- I think they will show up tonight:-)

  • I LOVE ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!!!
