Hello! We are less then a month away from one of my favorite holidays, St Patrick's Day!:flagireland: It's always been big here I remember as a kid going downtown the Saturday before St Patty's with my dad and little brother, when t he parade still went down Chestnut St. Now due to popularity over the years to accommodate the crowds it heads west on Marken St., as well as The Ancient Order of Hibernians parade in Dogtown that is on St Patrick's day, no matter what day of the week lt's on. I owned a home in Dogtown with my first wife for almost 14 years, and when she moved out the last 4 parties seemed even better! Anyway, that was my "lone" big patty of the year, and had every thing from Bagpipers from the parade we were throwing cans of beer to for tunes after the parade, to the 24th district Alderman showing up wearing his "Eb" from Green Acres hat on his boarded donkey, he is a attorney and running again after all these years! The tradition continues in my Southdown bungalow on Saturday, March 14th this year! All members of this board are invited! Judging from the last two year's, I will also make The Sheik Guarantee that it WILL be the BEST corned beef sandwich anywhere in the city of St Louis!:aktion033: Family, friends neighbors, great food and drink, green Dos Equis bottles:beer4:, and the occasional Don Julio/and or Tito's vodka shots will be available from noon to ~??? (Sorry folks no whiskey, so please BYOB for that if you like!), soda and iced teal also for the non drinkers new potato's marble rye bread and also the traditional corned beef and cabbage. My mom also makes a few killer lemon moorage sheet cakes too. Cant promise any half assed politicians showing up on their donkey, or bagpipers appearing, since I don't live 2 blocks from the Hibernians parade route anymore, but it's still a blast! Please shoot me a PM so I can get a approx. idea for the additional guests food and booze wise, we did 6 rounds and one biscuit last year! Oh and also if you like Rueben's, will also have home made 1000 Island dressing and sauerkraut for that! Hope to hear from Ya!!! :flagireland:
I'll give a McBump for a st Louis thread but we will not be out partying this weekend for St Patty's day. Boo! Lame, I know. Have a great time to you both!
Hey it's all good! Supposed to be a soaking rain all day Friday, and balmy low 60'sf on Saturday! Lots of festivities here painting the town green! Anyone going to in the city for the parade, please shoot me a PM!?artyhorn:
How cool of you to invite everyone to your party! Wish we lived closer. Knowing me, I'll probably eat and drink so much on St Patty's that I'll be spending March 18th in "the loo." ~Maxx
