Happy St. Patty's Day!

Hope everyone has a GREAT St. Patty's Day! Here's what we have in store:

Green jello snacks! Unfortunately, I don't have any St. Patrick's Day cookie cutters, but I do have spring ones..so we're going to have tulips, some other type of flower and butterfly jigglers!

Fun St. Patty's coloring pages! You can print them here! And we're making a cute green puppy out of a shamrock!

We were going to do a St. Patty's treasure hunt, but that was a little too ambitious to come up with late last night..however it's something to keep in mind for next year! I just have to gather the materials ahead of time..chocolate coins, multicolored tissue paper!

And finally, for dinner, we'll be having "Scalloped Cabbage"--recipe below:

Scalloped Cabbage (can be made into a main dish by adding meat, see notes)

2 qts of cabbage (one small-medium head of cabbage--ON SALE at Kroger thru Wednesday for 19 cents a pound!)
1 can cream of celery soup
1/4 cup milk
1 cup cheese
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 tbsps melted butter
salt and pepper, to taste
ground beef, turkey or chicken-optional

Boil cabbage in salted water for approximately 5-7 minutes. Drain.

Melt butter in microwave and toss with bread crumbs.
