Happy St. Patty's!

This is about the extent of celebrating st. patty's at our house, and this is MUCH more then we usually do. But, I did wear my green scarf today. That counts, right??

I have corned beef and cabbage in the crock pot right now, it's smelling pretty darn good if I do say so myself. I've never really made this before so we'll see how it turns out. Here is the recipe I found online:

Crock Pot Corned Beef and Cabbage
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
4 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 pound baby carrots
3 cups water
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (3 pound) corned beef brisket with spice packet, cut in half
1 small head cabbage, cut into wedges
Directions:
Place the onion, potatoes and carrots in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Combine water, garlic, bay leaf, sugar, vinegar, pepper and contents of spice packet; pour over vegetables. Top with brisket and cabbage. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until meat and vegetables are tender. Remove bay leaf before serving.

Then, I saw this fun idea. Thought it was a fun way to tell your honey you love them! The card says "I am so "Lucky" to have you in my life" and the bag is full of some of my hot hubby's favorite treats.
