Happy St. Patrick's Day From My Three Bears
Comments (11)Daisy, below is a link to my bears... tells their "stories". :o) I love my bears! I also love Wenatchee and its orchards...far from us. We're located in the eastern, mountainous area of Washington... north of Spokane, north of the small community of Deer Park. We love it here....even with its harsh winters! LOL Countrygrl, I still love your bear and am wondering when he will ever come visit his cousins here!!!! He looks dapper dressed for St. Pat's Day! Bear Hugs!

Comments (4)Wishing you the happiness of a leprechaun's gold, and a day of songs and love that will never grow old! Happy (belated) St. Patrick's Day! :) Since I am new to this place, I got a bit delayed in wishing you all. So, how do you generally celebrate St.Patrick's day at home? In our home,we just started celebrating it last year after my son pestered us about it. I was searching online for things to do this St.Patrick's Day and came across this list of easy and fun to do St.Patrick's Day activities. We did the 'shamrock hearts' activity with my son who simply loved it! Maybe you could try out some of these next year... Cheers!

Comments (31)My favorite scone recipe from Bon Appetit Cranberry-Orange Scones 3 c. flour 1/3 c. sugar 2 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking soda 1 Tbs grated orange peel 3/4 c. unsalted butter cut in 1/2" pieces 1 c. chilled buttermilk Preheat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Sift flour, sugar, powder, soda and salt into large bowl. Mix in in orange peel. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until mix resembles coarse meal. Stir in dried cranberries. Gradually add buttermilk tossing with fork until moist clumps form. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead briefly to bind the dough ... about 4 turns. Form into 1" thick round and cut into 8* wedges. Transfer wedges onto baking sheet spacing 2" apart. Bake until tops of scones are golden brown about 25 min. Let stand on baking sheet for 10 min. Serve warm or at room temp. ------------------- *I usually cut into 16 wedges as I like them smaller....8 will make giant scones....See MoreSt. Patrick’s Day Lunch Update
Comments (15)Thank you for the feedback—I wish everyone could come! Yes, oxalis BBstx, and the local supermarkets have them as well as nurseries and store like Walmart. I babysat over the weekend for our grands and while in their town visited a target store to look for anything St Patrick related for the centerpiece. They had NOTHING, and when I asked about it was told that all had been sold more than a month ago! This brought home the fact that I have only a scant two weeks to prepare. 😳 I’m glad there is general approval of the menu, but have a question: I was thinking i would garnish each plate with mint and three slices of kiwi, which is basically ”the” fruit. Is that enough of a fruit presence or would you have melon wedges as well? I’d probably do honeydew for the color (instead of my original plan for cantalope) or I could serve smaller honeydew chunks and blueberries together— which woukd obviate the need for a sharp knife....See More- 7 years ago
