Hello All, What a beautiful, beautiful show today!! Bringing back lots of good memories of being at my Granny Corrigan's house every St. Patrick's Day, eating green cupcakes and especially listening to that last Clancy Brothers song.

Yes, and green Jell-O too! And lots and lots of mugs of tea and grandmotherly wisdom. She passed away 16 years ago, but we still have a cup of tea in her honour every March 17. Thank you for all the good memories today!
