I even bought a box of Lucky Charms for breakfast.
After the parade, shuttle services will begin transports to the bars for more drinking and live music. Later, those still standing will dine on corned beef and cabbage.
St. Paddy's day wouldn't be complete without a good luck toast:
“I've drunk to your health in company,I've drunk to your health alone, I've drunk to your health so many times, I've darn near ruined my own! Here's to me!”
My plan is to avoid the afternoon action, but watch the parade and feast on corned beef.
How about you? Are you celebrating?

A corned beef and cabbage lunch at the Senior Center after a morning of Dominoes is what I will be doing. No parade here but maybe there will be something on TV.
I'm thinking about maybe going shopping! That's way more fun for me!
I'm so happy that the weather is going to cooperate because I'm going to watch the parade.
Beannacht Lá Fhéile Pádraig!
Yes, there's a corned beef with my name on it, lurking in my fridge. And a loaf of soda bread I've been saving.
Thinking bout making Soda Bread today. :) I like it plain with no raisins in it. I know I know I'm weird plus I'm out. lol
Kiddos are wearing green and I am going to pull out my green sweater and I put an orange cami underneath it. Obnoxious but my fav! If I can find my claddagh wedding jewelry I'll wear that too. :)
Our main celebration will to just have a nice quiet dinner at home....corned beef. I am wearing green, have my 4 leaf clover pin on, and I always have my shamrock tattoo on me!
Happy St. Patrick's Day to you!
Always corned beef on St. Patrick's day...and to our local pub Jackie O's for Irish dancing. We are actually Italian, but EVERYBODY is Irish on St. Patty's day! :)
St Patricks Day is trending on Twitter. I talked about it on my show from NYC http://bit.ly/939R8C
My daughter made sure to wear green to school so she wouldn't get pinched--and my son had Lucky Charms for breakfast. That's about the extent of our St. Patrick's Day festivities. My Callahan ancestors are probably rolling in their graves...
I'm with Heather...wore green today as did hubby but that's pretty much it. Oooh, wait...I had a donut with green shamrock sprinkles on it. That must count for something. :)
Hey, Deb---I'm traveling back to Colorado today. But for someone like me with an Irish-English father and a maiden name of Conlan, your town's celebration sounds right up my alley. What fun! I may be tempted to show up there sometime for the party. :)
