Happy St. Patty's Day!!!

For St. Patty's day I woke up early to make Nelsie a hearty breakfast. I don't make him breakfast very often during the week besides the occasional toast, so this was a pretty good idea. I made him his favorite eggs, fried, it's harder to make green fried eggs then you think. I also made bacon, brown because it's hard to make bacon green and who would want to. I then made pancakes, I made them into boobs some how so they ended up being the ones that were for him.

I worked all day on Dinner. I started the corned beef early in the morning and let it cook all day until we were ready when I added the cabbage twenty minutes before. I made rolls and added some food coloring to them, because I remember always having green rolls that my mom made, they always tasted better green. I LOVE shortbread cookies dipped in chocolate now, so that is what I made for dessert. I was out of money for my food budget and didn't have anything in the house dessertish. Luckily I had all the ingredients for shortbread. They are delish and make it look like you spent more time then you did. Of course I dyed them green too. I have decided that food dyed is so exciting. I found limeade in the freezer and was so psyched! GREEN!!! I also made garlic mashed potatoes. It was a great day. I loved cooking all day and making a special meal for Nels. He said he was going to come home for lunch so I was trying to get it done or at least hidden before he got there so it would be an exciting treat! He was very impressed and loved it, minus the cabbage, he does not like cabbage. I found out though that I didn't like it either.

Our St. Patrick's day dinner! It was so delicious and so green and perfect. It consisted of Garlic mashed potatoes, limeade, corned beef and cabbage, green rolls, that I made. It was perfect! It was deliciously green!
