Craving O' The Green

It's fitting that my post at 5 Minutes for Parenting today is about pregnancy cravings.

Because today is also St. Patrick's Day, and OH MY WORD, I would kill for some corned beef and cabbage.

(Retch.)

Kidding. I'm Irish, but I'm not a fan of traditional Irish fare. (That link o' love there goes back to one of the first posts I wrote for this here blog.)

Instead, tonight for dinner, we're going to have cheddar-potato shepherd's pie (potatoes and sheep - score two Irish points), spinach salad (green - score one Irish point) and soda bread (real Irish food - score bonus points and five pounds).

And guess what I'm going to wash the whole thing down with? (Hint: The answer is in today's Pregnancy Journal.)
