Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

Happy St. Paddy's Day!



For Syd and Alex:
     What do you get when you cross poison ivy with a four-leaf clover?  A rash of good luck.

     Why should you never iron a four-leaf clover?  You don't want to press your luck.

     "I had an accident opening a can of alphabet soup this morning," said Murphy.
     "Were you injured?" inquired Seamus.
     "No, but it could have spelled 'disaster'," concluded Murphy.

'Tis a beautiful morning and the start of a beautiful weekend.  Have fun everyone.


    When Irish eyes are smiling
    When Irish eyes are smiling
    Sure it's like a morning spring.
    In the lilt of Irish laughter,
    You can hear the angels sing.
    When Irish hearts are happy,
    All the world seems bright and gay.
    And when Irish eyes are smiling,
    Sure, they steal your heart away.


An idea from dietician, Virginia Messina:  Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with "The Eating O' the Greens."
Try something new.
