Shamrock Shake
The Skinny Chef"When Irish eyes are smiling... they steal your heart away" -- those lyrics probably bring to mind serious St. Patty's celebrations. I'm big into entertaining and any excuse to host a party works for me – especially if there is a theme, color or food involved.

But St. Patrick's Day has always been much more to me than just a day for late-night bashes and green beer, because it also happens to be my Granny "Patricia's" birthday too.

I'm starting a new tradition in celebration of the wonderful cooking legacy she passed on to me, growing up in her kitchen. Every year, along with the gift and birthday card I send, I'll include a brand new recipe and photo from my blog, only it will be delivered the old-fashioned way, via snail mail. (Granny certainly knows her way around the kitchen but isn't as savvy when it comes to the computer.)
