What a great day! Not only was it fabulously beautiful outside, but it was loads of fun inside! Even my most curmudgeonly co-workers were in unusually high spirits. Maybe it was the green-loving holiday, maybe it was the beautiful weather, but whatever it was...this girl ain't complainin'!
At lunch, we were all in the bests of moods, and when the subject of Starbucks came up (which it almost always does), we decided that Starbucks should top all the drinks with green whipped cream in celebration of St. Patrick's day. Amber's brilliant interpretation:
Green Cool Whip!!
Speaking of Cool Whip, I didn't eat it for all of my childhood because my granddad always referred to it as calf's slobber. Thank the Lord I didn't grow up on a cattle farm!
Only bad thing about the green cool whip... we ended up with green teeth! Maybe it didn't look so professional, but it was oh, so tasty... and even more fun.
Yes, I'm wearing orange not green since, afterall, I am protestant, not Catholic. My eyes count as green to avoid pinching, right?! ;)
I got home on time for once, and when other plans fell through I decided the day was just too beautiful, and I was just too young to stay home on St. Pat's. So, I got in my car and headed to RiRa's in Clarendon to meet up with the crew from work for some Irish fun. ;)
Needless to say, I wasn't saying "Top of the Mornin' to ya" this morning!
You celebrate St. Valentine's Day, don't you??!
ReplyDeleteI think we should celebrate everyday as some kind of holiday- any excuse to party!!
