Happy St. Patrick's Day!

To celebrate St. Patrick's Day my husband and I took an Irish bread making class. We made a free formed Irish Soda Bread with cheese, onions, and fresh rosemary. Yum!

We also made our own butter in a mason jar! We filled a mason jar part way with cream and shook it until it became butter.

It was a lot of fun! The shaking didn't take very long - only a few minutes. I got my arm workout for the day though. The butter was delicious on the Irish Soda Bread!

Then we made Hot Cross Buns with cardamom, currants, and raisins. We topped them with vanilla icing.

I also made my husband a gigantic chocolate lucky horseshoe treat holder. I am just so lucky to have a wonderful husband like him! He is such a dear!

I found the foil wrapped chocolate horseshoe at Bed, Bath, and Beyond of all places. They do have an interesting variety of national and international foods and candy. It is worth taking a look for cute ideas for the holidays!

Here is a close-up of the tag. It is made using the Lovely Friends Stamp Set and the Lovely Laurel Laurel Thinlits Set. The clover is made using the larger arrowhead shaped stamps. The stem is free formed using an Emerald Envy Stampin' Write Marker. So cute!

I hope that your blessings out number of shamrocks that grow, and may trouble avoid you wherever you go!

Thanks for stopping by!
