St. Patty’s Day Recipes
St. Patrick’s Day is next week Tuesday, which means a lot of local places are starting their celebrations the weekend before. Some are even running them for the whole month! I pulled together a list of events that I found this weekend for Waukesha – looks like there is going to be a lot of fun going on.
Happenings – The ‘Pot of Gold Treasure Hunt’ all over town sounds very fun!
Clarke Irish Restaurant – All the time!
They haven’t released their special yet, but the menu is already Irish
Good Harvest Market – I’m sure they will have yummies in their deli, but I already saw that Cabbage is on sale!
Generations at 5 Points – As a nod to St. Paddy’s Day we have Shepherd’s Pie all month!! Here is a link to the full March Tapas menu
Pat’s Rib Place – Smoked Corned Beef available!
Simply Irresistible Catering – Now thru 3/16/15

I will not be around this weekend as I am heading north to Shawano for a big St. Patty’s Day celebration with friends. There will be a parade, music, drinks and lots and lots to eat. Everyone was asked to bring a dish to share. I originally was going to make festive green rice krispie treats, but another treat was asked of me – Chocolate Guinness Whoopie Pies with Bailey’s buttercream filling. I think I might just have to take a stab at those.
Other favorite treats that I have made in the past include Lucky Charms Treats, Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes and Guinness Beef Stew. The cupcakes and stew are huge hits with my friends – I served an Irish Soda bread on the side one year as well.. I’m not sure I’ll get around to making either of those this year, but maybe I can – depending on how tired I am from the weekend.
