If you thought Saint Patrick's Day flew right by me just because I'm in Central America, you are wrong my friend. I celebrated it not once, not twice, but tres times!
I first celebrated on Thursday with my English class. I taught them vocabulary and shared how I used to make leprechaun shoe-box traps as a kid. Sam and I then took all our students outside to play a game with the Irish song, "Bonnie." Later that night, I headed down to visit my little boys. Since they always ask for a bedtime story, I went with a festive one. And, of course, I included the importance of wearing green. When I went back on Saturday to check, I was definitely able to do my fair share of pinching! Unfortunately, they just countered it by pinching back (even though I wore a TON of green haha).
On the actual day, I spent the morning making irish soda bread with the classic Healy recipe. Even without finding buttermilk down here, it turned out really well! Once day turned to night, we had ourselves a good time by festively donning temporary tattoos and heading to the irish pub in town. It was lots o' fun!
