Pre-Paddy’s Weekend

// March 16th, 2009 // Adventure

So, the 17th of March draws near, and with it passes my least favorite time of the year. Yes, the FA Cup starts, and yes there’s the Super Bowl, but there’s also cold and rain and snow and ice and darkness all the time and….

Anyway, I love Paddy’s day, and this year, I’ve already celebrated twice! Saturday, Maureen and I went up to Wilmington to hang out with Josh, Becca, Jon, Debi, Steve & Monica. The parade of course went relatively unnoticed as we waited in lines for beer, and then the port-o-johns, and then for beer, and then the port-o-johns. It seems monotonous, yet it’s still fun, and at this point, it’s tradition!

Yesterday I met the Glimmer Twins (Maureen & Tricia) in downtown Baltimore for the parade after-party at Power Plant Live. Very commercial, but the girls are always fun to hang out with, so a good time was had by all. We capped the day by having dinner down at James Joyce. An excellent pre-Paddy’s day weekend, if I do say so myself.

Tonight, Jess & I will be making soda bread, enough to share with everyone at the office. It’s always a messy process, but the bread tastes fantastic, so it definitely worth it.
