Wow! Awesome Irish inspiration. I’m bookmarking this post…yum! Thanks so much.
Everything sounds sooooooo good. Thanks tons for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
Everything you do is just wonderful – I “pin” so many of your ideas. Your creativity is truly inspiring. Thank you :-)
Thanks for the beautiful pictures, lovely to look at on a day when you are housebound because of the weather. Would love to use the ball jars. Thanks for the opportunity. Cherry G.
Your use of cabbage as vase is brilliant! Call me a copy cat — there will be as much cabbage on the table as in the colcannon! The Ball Jars are gorgeous! Perfect to serve fizzy patricks or maybe something stronger! Erin go Bragh!
All looks delish…even the food!! LOL!!! Didn’t know there was a green jar give away too bad they would have looked real pretty with my purple ones. Well, maybe next time. HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!!!
I love Champ I an definitely making those and I love the Irish Stew. :)
Your pictures are perfection, as usual! This Irish blog post makes me want to bake!! Thanks for sharing your talents! :0)
