They seem to work with almost any theme. I think it adds a little special touch when you can place a little goodie (chocolate of course) at each place setting.
The green GOBLETS were my moms and the BELLS were gifts, long ago, from dear friends andprecious children and I absolutely adore my white porcelain. Can't get enough of it.
You can't, simply can't, celebrate St. Patty's day without Corned Beef and Cabbage
I love to baste cooked Corned Beef with a paste of honey, syrup, mustard, and nutmeg
wrap it in foil and put it in an oven of about 400 degrees for 20 minutes or so. YUMMY
and......
you must have Colcannon along with the Corned Beef
Recipe for Colcannon
6 medium Potatoes, peeled and quartered
4 Cups shredded Cabbage
1 Cup chopped onion
1/4 Cup butter
1/2 to 3/4 Cups milk
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 Tbl. snipped parsley
Cook potatoes in large amount of boiling salted water till tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Meanwhile cook cabbage and onion together in small amount of boiling salted water for 15 minutes; drain. Mash potatoes using electric mixer. Beat in butter and as much milk as necessary to make fluffy. (however chunky is great too) Add salt and pepper. Stir in cabbage and onion. Top with parsley. Serves 6
My most favorite thing "Dilly Bread"
The aroma while it is baking calls to me.
Just took it out of the oven and I think I have to have a slice....RIGHT NOW!
Love my little butter bell ..it keeps the butter
at the perfect temperature. Got it at TJ Maxx for $3
And of course I must have my chocolate, Irish or not,
here I come.
