Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Anyone remember the Shamrock Shake at McDonald's?
As kids we'd always beg my parents to take us to McDonalds when they had Shamrock Shakes.

I googled them & found out they still sell them in some markets.
I haven't been to a McDonald's (in the USA) for years, but I doubt they have Shamrock Shakes in SLC (not a big enough market).

I remember one St. Patrick's Day I dyed the milk green & my brother freaked out & wouldn't drink it. My mom wasn't happy even though she knew it still tasted the same. Not quite the same as dying the beer or the Chicago River green, but I thought it was a fun way to celebrate.

So, even though the Irish Catholic Bishops changed the day of celebration to Saturday, the 15th this year (as to not interfere with the Holy Week before Easter), Happy St Paddy's Day to you.

Here's a little St. Patrick's day quiz for you.
