Hello friends! I hope you are all enjoying the week. I love St. Patrick's Day and last year I posted this recipe for Irish Soda Bread on the blog.
I thought I would share this lovely recipe with you again. It's so delicious and easy to make!
I was so happy when I was given this recipe by our good friend who's mom was from Ireland! I really encourage you to make this bread. This Irish Soda Bread is so yummy and of course tastes great when it's warm right out of the oven. Have fun baking this bread! 😀💚💚💚

IRISH SODA BREAD RECIPE
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups regular flour
1 egg
1 1/3 cups buttermilk
1/2 stick margarine
1 cup raisins
1/4 box caraway seeds
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
(Dash of nutmeg or cinnamon - if desired)
DIRECTIONS:
All ingredients at room temperature
Use shallow greased 9" baking tin. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bring raisins to boiling point only. Drain and cool. Sift together all dry ingredients. Rub in margarine. Beat egg and buttermilk together. Add to mixture using a wooden spoon. Fold in raisins. Mixture will be on the dry side- light dough. Roll into baking tin. Smooth top with spoon. Bake 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Cool on rack thoroughly. Glaze with melted sugar (2 tablespoons) in 1/2 oz. boiling water. Top of cake only, sprinkle top with cinnamon sugar. Slice and serve with butter.
Enjoy!
** NOTE: I did not use the caraway seeds or the sugar glaze on top of bread that the recipe calls for, and it still tasted amazing.
Wishing you all a HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY
Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful end of the week and weekend!
These clovers are pretty easy and fast to make once you get the hang of it. I had fun crocheting them and I decided that I wanted to make them and give them to the women in my crochet group!
Making these crocheted clovers reminded of when I was little. My mom would give each one of us in the family a small green carnation to wear on our school uniform. It made me realize that these would be a great idea to wear for St. Patrick's Day on your coat, shirt, or hat.
Another cute idea is that you can make the clovers into a little banner for your mantel. You just make a long chain and then add the clovers to the chain stitch.
I hope I have inspired you to crochet these clovers too!

Hello blog friends. I LOVE using my crock pot during the week for quick and easy week night meals. I came up with the idea to make crock pot stuffed peppers when I saw it in one of my cookbooks. I changed the recipe a bit to my liking.
Here are a few photos showing how I prepared the stuffed peppers.
What I love about this recipe is that you don't have to put the peppers in the oven to cook. Once again I can make the peppers in the crock pot, and then I can be doing other things until they are ready to eat. The peppers come out really tender and moist using this cooking method.
I hope you give this recipe a try as there is no meat in this recipe, and it would be the perfect meal to make for lent.
