Luck of the Irish

Every March comes one of my favorite holidays of the year, St. Patrick's Day.  Although my fashion of celebration has changed from my childhood days, pinching people without repercussions to drinking Irish whiskey. Being surrounded by shamrocks, pots o'gold, and GREEN sucks me into a whirlwind of uncontrollable jubilation.  St. Patrick's Day is Wednesday, but that didn't stop my friends from celebrating last weekend. I decided to bake a cake for the occasion, Andes Mint Chocolate Cake.

 AMAAAAAZING!

Unfortunately we've ran across a problem now... Should I bake another cake for the ACTUAL St. Patrick's Day??? There's this awesome pistachio cake recipe that's been haunting my daydreams today... http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Pistachio-Cake-III/Detail.aspx  What do you all think???

My vote is whoever thought that this wasn't a good idea is crazy, YES!?

It's Sunday.... and you know what that means....

LAUNDRY!

Well, it was Sunday when I started this post at least hehe Yesterday Kavan and I took advantage of the 60 degree weather and took out Ruby for a spin. We took our little joy ride to Great Falls, VA, and got the 2 slices of pizza and a pop $5 special.  It's so exciting to think that Spring is just around the corner! 

However, the Winter hasn't stopped us from exploring the sights and sounds of DC. Saturday night was the opening of an art exhibit, DCist Exposed, made up entirely of photographs taken around DC. Here's a link to the winners, some of my favs are below:

 

This in the park near my house. The ducks love lining up on the last tier of the fountain in the Summer.

One more week until my spring break! And I think I'm going to try and get ahead in work for my classes so the more time I can start reading this book I have to write an analysis on. I did have plans but thing's came up and got canceled.
