St. Patrick's Day

I am an Irish lass married to a very Irish man, with two little Irish looking kids, and no one in the house cares for corned beef and cabbage.  What are you going to do?

Tonight we are having grilled petite filet mignon and pesto pasta.  Even when you love to cook you have days where you had to bake 20 baked potatoes for the preschool baked potato bar St. Patrick's Day party, and then lost electricity to the house and were unable to open the garage door with the electric opener, reminding you that you left the house key in the house after giving it to the babysitter a few days ago... So when your electricity comes back on and you finally get back into your house you grill up a couple of FABULOUS steaks, and use Trader Joe's organic pasta and Whole Foods pesto, and throw some raw spinach salad and cold glasses of milk (or pints of Guinness!) and call it a meal.  Whew.
