St. Paddys Day: We are OLD

Back in the day, The Celebration of St. Patrick involved some serious partying. Green dye in Coors Light, The Great Stout Taste Test (Guinness vs. Beamish vs. Murphys) and maybe even a few Irish Car bombs.

This year's celebration for Cat & Cam started off by visiting three different markets on the way home from work at 8:00pm trying to find Guinness. After some legwork we made it happen only to enjoy the delicious taste of Guinness Draft (out of the bottle).


Do you know that one pint of Guinness is only 90 calories? Do you think that widget-thingie in the bottle does anything but allow Mayflower Market on Fillmore and Jackson to charge $9.99 per sixer?

So no crazy bar hopping this year. A night on the couch with some left over pot roast and a few stouts was all we needed to "celebrate". Although we did make a resolution to make corned beef and cabbage for 3/17/2009. Delish!
