These things I warmly wish to you- Someone to love Some work to do A bit o' sun A bit o' cheer And a guardian angel always near.
All through the long winter, I dream of my garden. On the first day of spring, I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth. I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar..." - Helen Hayes

ladies you are all so welcome I hope you enjoy St.Paddy's day here a great recipe for the work day that does not reguires you standing over the stove all day. Crock pot corned beef and cabbage Ingredients 2 celery stalks, cut into 3-inch pieces 3 carrots, cut into 3-inch pieces 1 small yellow onion, cut into 1-inch wedges (root end left intact) 1/2 pound small potatoes, halved if large 6 sprigs thyme 1 corned beef brisket (about 3 pounds), plus pickling spice packet or 1 tablespoon pickling spice 1/2 head Savoy cabbage, cut into 1 1/2-inch wedges Grainy mustard, for serving Directions In a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker, place celery, carrots, onion, potatoes, and thyme. Place corned beef, fat side up, on top of vegetables and sprinkle with pickling spice; add enough water to almost cover meat (4 to 6 cups). Cover and cook on high until corned beef is tender, 4 1/4 hours (or 8 1/2 hours on low). Arrange cabbage over corned beef, cover, and continue cooking until cabbage is tender, 45 minutes (or 1 1/2 hours on low). Thinly slice corned beef against the grain and serve with vegetables, cooking liquid, and grainy mustard. All through the long winter, I dream of my garden. On the first day of spring, I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth. I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar..." - Helen Hayes

Candace, Thank You very much for my fun St. Paddy's Day box. I had fun sharing the shamrocks with the Irish words with my patients where I work. The green worm is fun along with the shamrock crazy straws and party garb. Also thank you for the notebook with the history info and the handy dish towel. I tried to post a pic but I must be electronically challenged today. I hope you received your package and enjoyed it as well. Once again Thank You and Happy Birthday and Happy St. Patrick's Day! |

Lassie I really hope most of you received your packages I know a few of you did not and I am very sorry I would have hoped that after all the posts I wrote regarding if you can not do the swap please contact me, that I would have been emailed. I am truly sorry for those of you who did not receive your st paddys day in box and getting after the fact is no fun at all. and it spoils it for everyone. ONE more thing please post a thank you if you received a package..so your partner knows it arrived..she should not have to email you to found out if you recieved it.its the polite thing to do.. After this I am hosting one final swap and that will be my last as this is just too too disappointing and sad that some MJ farmgirls just have no regard for the Swaps and the partners they are assigned..Its just not the farmgirl way. I wish you all a Happy ST PADDYs day blessings deborah

Dear Deborah,
It saddens me so much to hear that you will not be doing swaps anymore! You truly do a wonderful job and put so much work and effort into all that you do! I hope you reconsider after sometime. I will never understand why a MJF girl would commit to a swap and receive her swap and not do the right thing shame shame! Sorry Deborah it's a sad lose.
Hugs, Roe |

Michelle,
I know it is late, however wanted to let you know that I did receive your wonderfull package, love the apron and napkins, card, music potholder, hanki, card and nuts. Loved them all. Just wanted to let you know that I had a death in the family and was hit pretty hard, just now getting back to work and trying to get in the swing of things. At the same time my twin brother was hit with a divorce. We are very close and it hit him hard. So my life recently was very unsettling. I do sincerely apologize for being tardy and will do my best to never let this happen again. I am sending your belated box out tomorrow in the mail.
Best always
