*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***
We paraded for St. Patrick's Day in the rain last
year with the kids' scout troops and there are more
this weekend but we're opting for a little more
laid back and enjoying our corned beef and cabbage
dinner with the family this weekend. There will be
plenty of green flowing like the Chicago river and
many filled mugs I'm sure. We enjoy setting our
leprechaun trap with the kiddies and they sure hope
to catch ourselves one this year so we can get some
of that little guy's gold in exchange for his release!
Funny how I never heard of that until I had kids?
Then agian I was new to Elf on a Shelf for Christmas
too.
Well luck O' the Irish to you all! If you need
something to make or bring for parties or just want
to dig some corned beef leftovers you may have here
is a variation on the Reuben whipped into a dip.
Load it up on some party rye bread or your favorite
crackers and make sure you've got a nice big drink
nearby. This is a cinch for anyone to make.
Enjoy!
