Hello and Happy St. Patrick’s Day from your local redheaded Mexican, Monican!
First let’s talk about eating dinner. I picked up Indian food for dinnah last night. Dig it and dig it well.
Today I’m sporting my new green maxi dress.
Similar:
Piped sleeves maxi in a lighter green / Braided Maxi / Maxi with Ruffle Sleeves
Plus my cheezy shamrock headband!
I think Vegas digs it / is excited I didn’t dress him up for the holiday 😉
Today I’ll be eating all the green foods!
Here are some of my favorite green foods today:
1. Avocado – on anything like this Ortega Omelet
2. Mint n Chip Ice Cream.
3. Green Smoothies like this Green Smoothie recipe with Pineapple
OR this Cucumber Mint Juice Recipe
Or this Skinny Shamrock Shake Recipe!
4. Green grapes. Kiwi. Epic Salads.
All of those.
5. Green cocktails!
Check out: Green Cocktails for St. Patrick’s Day for some recipes. Or just go to a bar hello.
Have a good day!
Wore green, but getting over a stomach bug so I was pretty much on the potato and gatorade diet.
Whew! Managed to include some veg (green!) in my stirfry last night. 🙂
I scored this morning and found an emerald green shirt I had purchased right at the end of summer last year and had forgotten all about it, so I wore that to work today. Had a green smoothy for breakfast. Zucchini and spinach at lunch. Still at work doing OT so not sure what I’ll be having for dinner (or when). Is that Thrift ice cream from Rite Aid? I LOVE their mint n chip and the double chocolate malted crunch ice cream. Sadly, there are no Rite Aids in Nevada. Boo.
I want to interrupt this St Paddy’s post to share an article with you:

Yes, a record number of manatees have been tallied in Florida’s annual survey. I thought of you when I saw that!
P.S. yes, I’m wearing green today, and I drank Irish Creme coffee with breakfast 🙂
Ahhhh! I need to go there asap!! Luckily I know someone in FL…
I’m wearing green for sure and I had a giant green smoothie this morning. I am also eating zucchini right now so I think that also counts. Last Saturday was really the huge celebration here in Chicago w drunken people everywhere and the river being dyed green, so I feel like today is an afterthought even though it’s the actual day.
Wearing: Green nail polish, green eyeshadow, and a green ball in my cartilage earring. I do have a green St. Patricks day shirt that says ” I [shamrock] Irish boys” but I’m not going to wear it outside of the house.
Eating: I have a Bailey’s Irish Cream cupcake with green shamrock sprinkles on top for this evening- I’m super looking forward to it! I might get a green smoothie or shake this afternoon as well. 🙂
I’m dying over that cupcake!!
I realized just the other day that I didn’t have anything green to wear for St Patrick’s day, blue it is today. 🙂 But I am eating green today – a green smoothie for breakfast and a green salad for lunch. I really want that Mint ‘n Chip ice cream. Maybe that will be dinner! Happy St Patrick’s Day.
Mint n chip is always a good idea 🙂
I’ve got my green Banana Republic silk top on. Thank goodness it’s light, gonna be 90 in Phoenix today.
Wearing a green shirt I’ve had since high school (over ten years. Maybe I should get rid of it?), and I had a shake for breakfast that wasn’t green, but it had sugar-free pistachio pudding mix, which is green. 🙂
Love the dress!
I am having spinach with chicken fajita on top!
bah totally forgot to wear green today. oops. We celebrated with friends on saturday so I wore green then. That counts, right? 🙂
Happy St Patrick’s Day from Belfast!
It was tough running in my too-small green running shirt and St Pat’s mask, but it was worth it. After seeing your photos tonight its traditional Irish curry for dinner – I’ll throw in a few potatoes.
Have fun
Jac
Love that meme! So many people are going for the green smoothie today.
I love this dress on you! You can totally pass for being Irish, you should really work that angle today 😛 The ortega omlette just made me so hungry, I don’t think I can make it to the gym with out a banana this am. Happy St. Patty’s!
xx Jill

Ah I am craving indian food right now! That looks so good!
No green for me…I have to dress business casual so my options were very limited.
I don’t own anything green…I am eating leftovers and there is no green….. 🙁
I am having a salad and avocado for lunch so that’s green. But I’m not wearing green. I actually am not a fan of this day when it falls on a weekday. It means there will be drunken fools all around my office in mid town today. And a good percentage of them have green faces because they drank to much. I have to dodge the puke 🙂
My husband was born in Belfast and his parents have thick Irish accents…BUT…I realized that they don’t really celebrate St. Patrick’s Day because it’s more of a Dublin thing (Ireland) and they’re from Northern Ireland (part of Great Britain). My hopes for an endless supply of green beer were dashed. 🙁
I’m not wearing green today, but to be honest, I can only think of one top of mine that has green in it … it’s not a colour I wear often.
Tonight I will be eating my brussel sprout and asparagus salad made specially for a green St Pat’s Day!
Dang! Neither to those questions!
Boo!!
