08 MAR 2020 ~ can't wait for Corned Beef & Cabbage, though this particular meal isn't from Ireland. It is an Irish-American invention since Pork was too expensive for the poor Irish immigrants, so brined beef was substituted. The official meal of Ireland is Irish Stew & Soda bread with tea and/or a pint or two !!
Yes, I have my place decorated with everything Irish !! ;D I didn't grow up eating Lamb/Mutton, so the traditional Irish Stew wouldn't be my favorite. Beef Stew I love, especially when my Mom made it !! Corned Beef & Cabbage, carrots and Potatoes is my favorite !! I could eat it more than once a year !! I get my fix once in awhile by having Corned Beef sandwiches with Big Ol' Juicy Dill Pickles !! hee,hee !!! xoxo Niwi
