Rain falls on your fields and until we meet again May the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand’ It’s hard to believe it’s already March! If you’re getting ready for a St. Patrick’s Day party. Be sure to check out some of my favorite recipes like Corned Beef and Cabbage with Horseradish Cream, Low Fat Irish Soda Bread, and this fun Shamrock Shake!
