Every year on March 17 St. Patrick's Day is celebrated by Irish people (and non-Irish) around the world. I have absolutely no Irish roots (as far as I know) and neither does my husband, but I've always had a big fascination with all things Ireland. I believe it started with learning about Irish blessings. This well-known one is my all time favorite:

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

Irish Blessing

I also dream of taking a road trip around the Emerald Isle. I can't think of many things that sound more serene than driving through endlessly green countryside. But Olivia will have to grow out of toddlerhood first. Otherwise there would be nothing serene about that trip.

Until I actually make it to Ireland, I can at least get a taste of it with these yummy Irish inspired recipes. And so can you! No green food dye in here - just hearty, delicious comfort food!
