My Irish heritage is a big part of my identity (So is the German, Dutch and then less and less French, Welsh, English, Scots…).

So Fáilte (which means Welcome) to you!

I will post a few pics as the actual day for wearin’ o’ th’ green (why do we clip the ends of the words like this?) goes on, and since it’s already St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland, I wish you all a happy one. Though I have been told that really this huge celebration is an American thing…

And a special greeting to my friend who celebrates his “saint’s day” every year in style. May the skies be fair, the company fine and the food free. Sláinte!

And just because I needed to know where the accent went on that last word, here’s a website with many greetings and toasts.
