We love St. Paddy’s and we love it even more when it lands on a weekend, enabling us to spread green cheer over the course of several days. In fact, this year there’s so much cheer it spread over TWO weekends, but we’re limiting ourselves to celebrating this Friday, March 17 with a hangover cure that runs thru Sunday.
Whether you’re heading out – scroll for party picks, Green Martini’s and What to Wear – or hanging at home – scroll for Irish Soda Bread, Guinness Cupcakes, green cookies and decor – scoop has the scoop. Slainte!
