Guest guest Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 I am Scottish as well, but I know there is a wee bit of Irish celt mixed in.... could be some in your blood as well? As far as the wearing of the green, for me it has nothing to do with the xtain sects. In paganism green has a different meaning. I find it quite fitting to wear on this day. Besides, I look aweful in orange! We are going to eat some carrots and turnips, so orange will be on our plates. ~ PT ~ You've got to do your own growing, no matter how tall your grandfather was. ~ Irish saying ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~> , The Stewarts <stews9@c...> wrote: > > [recipe] Fluffy Grasshopper Pie > > > > This is the green dessert I am making for tomorrow. > > Green's Irish Catholic, Orange is Irish Protestant. > > Me?
