5. this is one of two amatuer holidays for drinkers
the other is new years. i went to a st patricks day breakfast in montreal last weekend and i hate to say this but most of the irish dishes they served really sucked. it included blood sausage, some kind of mashed potatoe/cabbage concoction, and soda bread. the only saving grace was the guiness and irish coffee.

6. you have to be totally starving and completely hung over (husband) or a
martyr (wife) to appreciate the old fashioned irish cooking. I guess it sort of co-evolved with the gender roles way back when.
and it's caled colcannon.
