Hello blog friends.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! 🍀
Today I'm sharing with you a St. Patrick's Day memory.
I happened to be visiting Niagara Falls, Canada a few years ago with Mr. JCL celebrating St. Patrick's Day.

Today I'm sharing with you a St. Patrick's Day memory.
I happened to be visiting Niagara Falls, Canada a few years ago with Mr. JCL celebrating St. Patrick's Day.
We had a nice time visiting in March. The weather was cold and snowy but we had beautiful views of Niagara Falls.
We had dinner at a local Irish pub and we had our traditional dinner along with green beer.
I love looking back and remembering the fun time we had celebrating St. Patrick's Day together.

I made this crochet four-leaf clover a few years ago. Below is the pattern to crochet one.

Every year it's a tradition for me to bake some Irish Soda Bread. Below is the recipe.

IRISH SODA BREAD RECIPE |
UPDATE: It's so sad with the coronavirus spreading here in our area. Due to this happening, we will not have our usual St. Patrick's Day parade. The parade will be postponed until September. We need to be careful and safe with this virus situation.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hello blog friends. I love celebrating St. Patrick's Day and for the past few years I've posted this recipe for Irish Soda Bread on the blog.
Irish Soda Bread is one of my favorite breads and I was so happy when this recipe was given to me by our friend and his mom who was from Ireland.

This recipe is so simple and easy to make and tastes best made warm right out of the oven and smothered with some butter.

I bake this bread every year and I hope you will enjoy this Irish Soda Bread recipe as much as we do.
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.

Have a wonderful Friday and weekend.

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! 😀💚💚💚

Hi friends, there will not be a Makeup Monday this week because I wanted to wish everyone today a HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
I made on Thursday afternoon Irish Soda Bread and it came out really good. It was so delicious and not dry at all. Our good friend Mike gave me this recipe from his mom who was from Ireland. I am not sure if he wanted me to share his moms recipe so I am sharing with you a few photos of the bread I baked.
This bread came out so good and we loved it so much that I'm going to make another loaf of it this afternoon! We all love Irish Soda Bread and it tastes so good warm with butter spread on top.
We are going to have corned beef, potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts for dinner tonight and if you want to see my recipe for brussels sprouts you can find that HERE. My husband, daughter and I love celebrating St. Patrick's Day each year and many years ago my husband and I went out with all our friends to the St. Patrick's Day parade in New York City and that was so much fun! Now we usually stay home and watch the parade on TV!
I now want to share with you an Irish Blessing that I like:
