Hi Pat: I like your idea better. I'm not much on green beer either and brown is a little marginal too. My constant worry down here in New Mexico is that someone might try to slip the green chili in the pot just to be helpful. Another thing down here that strikes me a little strange are the number of green serapes that show up around this time. Oh well, Viva Santa Patricio anyway.----Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: Patricia Hammons<mailto:hammons7@windstream.net> To: mo-stlouis-metro@rootsweb.com<mailto:mo-stlouis-metro@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 17, 2007 4:42 PM Subject: Re: [MO-STLOUIS-METRO] St Patrick happy St. Pat's to you too Jim. WE had our corned beef and cabbage, Shamrock cookies, I can't go the green beer, so I fixed Grasshopper made with ice cream. It was good!!! I lived in KC for 20 years and miss going to their parade. I have never been down to the St. Louis one. My husband and I were just commenting that 10 or 15 years ago, we would still be going strong, just heading out of the downtown area to the neighborhood pubs!!!!! But here in our small town now, tis just another day!!! LOL.
