According to my wife's family history ( pedigree that traces back several hundred years ) She is about 45% Irish, 50% French, and the rest is Scotish, English, Welch. I alas, am not as I am all NE European.

It sneaks up on me every year! I managed to remember in time to pull on a green sweater this morning. My family never paid any attention to it other than for my sister to pinch the heck out of me if I forgot to wear green.. Mostly, for me, it's the signal that spring is close and the gauge to see how far behind I am in my gardening plans.

Her eyes they shown like diamonds, I thought her the Queen of the land and Her hair hung over her sho~ul~der tied up with a black velvet band.

God's love, my love to the Irish ~Erin gabra!

Me too! Now my sister married a Green, so she is Green everyday and proclaims she does not need to wear green. LOL (I bet she still gets pinched, but not by me! I know better.)

No Irish in these parts. Mostly German.

Same here. But the Germans LOVE beer and will partake in any holiday that promises LOTS of beer, green or not!

Beer's good, haven't had a bunch o beer in a long time.
