Lá Shona Fhéile Pádraig!!!
March 17th brings a smile to this face of mine. I am proud to be represent all of the nationalities that I am but St. Paddy's holds a special place in my heart.
Being a girl that was raised in a multi-racial family, I am on the light skinned side being that my father is white and my mother is black. Growing up in the NY tri-state, I have seen many things. But on holiday out of the year has always been my favourite besides my birthday(even though I bitch about my birthday every year. next year is the big 2-1). I get to learn many new things about the Irish and be proud of the rich history.
My Paddy's Day was fun with work and singin' and dancin' to Irish tunes. I did go to a parade over the weekend. A post with all the details recounting my weekend will come soon.
But I wanted to post this to wish everyone a happy and safe St. Paddy's and enjoy!!!
