I woke her up this morning and helped her get ready for school...No Green in her school uniform, but a Green Shammrock Scrunchie, a Green Necklace and a Green Bracelet complete the outfit perfectly! No Pinching will be happening today!
We were running a little behind so I told her to run downstairs and make breakfast. A few minutes later I came down and she was sitting at the table with a glass of juice. I asked her where her breakfast was...she answered (in a very pathetic sounding voice) "I was really hoping I could have green eggs and ham for breakfast." How could I forget?! So, scrambled eggs, chopped ham, a little green food coloring and Voilà! Green Eggs and Ham.
For her "surprise" St. Patrick's Day Lunch I made her a green egg salad sandwich, green shammrock cookies, broccoli (also green), green grapes, green jello and a green apple juice box...complete with a Shammrock Napkin.
My pot of gold is making her happy.

ps--how do you get elizabeth to eat that much at lunch? i totally can't get ryenn to eat her whole lunch & its hardly that much (because the she's snacking all afternoon). i think she talks too much... :)
I usually don't pack that much for her! usually a sandwich, a fruit or veggie, a "snack" food and a jello...but I went all out today for St. Patricks Day. My Dad's Mom is Irish. :)
