"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."" Psalm 91:1-2
"Be what you would seem to be--or, if you'd like it put more simply--Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise." from "Alice in Wonderland"
May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
Robert Phoenix I don't know if this would be the recipe for the Baileys Irish Cream brownies or not, but it is DELICIOUS and it does have a white icing on them!

"Irishness is not primary a question of birth or blood or language; it is the condition on being involved in the Irish situation, and usually of being mauled by it."-Conor Cruise O'Brien
My son just spent the whole morning making some Scottish meat pies to take to a potluck for his Metal Art class. He's constantly doing these off the wall things- seems he was recalling a food vendor at the Fresno Highland games last year. The vondor's last name was Henderson and he sold Henderson's Scottish Meat Pies. How could we resist? We bought a couple and they were just heavenly! Well, my son's attempt didn't turn out quite as good, but- not bad either! That's what I had for dinner tonight.
