Happy St. Patrick’s Day! There will be LOTS of green, bagpipes and maybe a few pots of gold (could we be so lucky?)!
This annual holiday occurs each year on March 17 in observance of the death of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. What began as a religious feast day in the 17th century has evolved into a variety of festivals across the globe celebrating Irish culture with parades, special foods, music, dancing, and a whole lot of green.
