I honor of the holiday, here are some trivia facts and things I love about Ireland....
*St. Patrick's real name was Maewyn Succat and he was born in Scotland.
*The color originally associated with St. Patrick's Day was blue.
*There are more Americans of Irish origin than there are Irish in Ireland.
*There are four places in the United States named Shamrock, and nine named Dublin.
*Each leaf on a four-leaf clover means something: hope, faith, love, and luck.

Cillian Murphy (everyone else thinks he's creepy but--although I agree he makes a FANTASTIC bad guy--there's just something about him that I've always been attracted to...)
Jonathan Rhys Meyers (that brooding stare...need I say more??)
Favorite Irish Recipe:
Bubble and Squeak (cabbage, potatoes, and sausage)
