St. Patrick's Day

In honor of St. Patrick's day I made my very first corned beef and cabbage meal. I wasn't sure if I'd like it. "Corned Beef" just doesn't have an appealing ring to it. I am happy to say it turned out wonderfully! It's a good thing too, that 3 hour cooking time would have really irked me if it didn't taste good. I also never ate cabbage before (I'd don't think) but it turned out good too! The potatoes, onions, carrots, and celery all mixed in with the cabbage cooked in the meat water--really it's like spicy beef stew--what's not to like?
Today is also our 4th wedding anniversary. I think we'll make this our traditional St. Patrick's Day/Anniversary meal. Since it's a work day we will wait until the weekend to go out for our anniversary. When it falls on a Saturday maybe we'll do something else....like go back to Vegas!
