When it comes to holiday traditions, I usually stick to what I knew growing up. Holidays were never brushed under the rug. My mom changed decorations for every single one + I love her even more for it now. I want my kids to be able to say the same thing when they are older. St Patricks Day was no exception. My mom would make us green eggs with bacon + green pancakes with a green cup of green milk.\u00a0Green. Lots of green. We wore green, we ate green\u00a0+ although I’m certain we didn’t take pictures of our food, I still remember it vividly. I had every single intention of recreating this green breakfast yesterday, but I\u00a0was sound asleep when Jon left for work. {palm + forehead unite} Jonah, my food twin, loves his cereal. He had a bowl of Lucky Charms + didn’t think twice about it so I called it good.\u00a0I printed out a couple of coloring pages from pinterest for him to color, which is actually kind of funny because he’s not usually into coloring, but since he thought the pot of gold was a bucket of golf balls, he was totally digging it! We hand delivered it to Jon with a pot of green hi-chews. His favorite candy in the entire world. {My very very very LEAST favorite candy, might I selfishly add. Hello worst.breath.ever.} Once he got home, we found the perfect excuse for a Sweet Pork Salad run + we\u00a0had a\u00a0festive “green” dinner at home, as a family. I whipped up some green milk for desert + then boys went to bed – jiggety jig. That’s our St Patricks day in a nutshell. Now lets break it down a little deeper shall we?<\/p>\n
