St. Patrick’s Day
Celebrating the patron saint of Ireland, its said that on St. Patrick’s Day everyone is Irish! The day is celebrated worldwide with parades, green beer and parties!

“Kiss Me I’m Irish“ buttons will be everywhere and wearing the color of the Irish - green - has become ‘de rigeur.’ The color is found everywhere today, with green hair making a big showing, as well as green food items - bagels, McDonald’s milk shakes, cereal milk, and of course green beer.

And while some cities paint the traffic stripes of their parade routes green, Chicago will be dying its river green. Savannah GA turns its downtown city fountains green and in Indianapolis the Central Canal will be green.

Irish-American Month

There’s a little bit of the green in all Americans this month as we celebrate the “deep roots” and friendship between Ireland and the US, as well as the Irish-American people.

When Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, ’tis like the morn in Spring.
In the lilt of Irish laughter,
You can hear the angels sing.
When Irish hearts are happy,
All the world seems bright and gay.
And when Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, they steal your heart away.

And we’re also counting down to the big party on St. Patrick’s Day! So visit our St. Partick’s Day website for more holiday fun!

Our very own local ”Wee Man” made the news today with a story of his seasonal job as a “Professional Leprechaun.”

Leprechaun impersonator Scott Seidman, a 4-foot-1 Long Islander, will spend more than 12 hours as the life of St. Patrick’s Day parties across Manhattan tomorrow. From bar to bar to nightclubs Seidman will be keep us smiling into the wee early morning.

Seidman has been praised for his professionalism as it seems finding reputable leprechauns is not easy! According to the promoter for the night club Pacha…

“We have had some nightmare leprechauns over the years,” the promoter says. “A lot of them can’t hold their liquor, and then you have intoxicated leprechauns and they pass out and when they’re drunk they look under girls’ skirts and are running around all over the place.”

(I’m sorry but drunk little people running around looking up skirts is just hysterical!)

Anyway good luck to our very own “Wee Man”!

Green beer and green bagels are staples when celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, at least here in New York. But now in celebration of St Patrick’s Day, The Cereal Bowl, a cafe in Miami Florida, will be serving green colored milk along with their Cheerios

“We are very excited about finding a unique and fun way to celebrate St Patrick?s Day at The Cereal Bowl. We have seen green beer before at local bars, so we thought why not milk at a Cereal Bar”
Chief Operating Officer Michael Glassman

The Cereal Bowl is a new breed of caf fusing an old time favorite with a new twist; guests are able to make their own cereal creations or pick from one of many unique combinations created by The Cereal Bowl Team. The green milk will be available in both Whole and Skim milk and will be served all this weekend.
