A conventional St. Patrick's Day celebration would feature anything Irish with abundance of overflowing Guiness . We decided, instead, to celebrate St. Patrick's Italian connection because he was, after all, a young Roman living in England who was taken captive to Ireland as a slave.
Featured as the main entree is a wonderful Italian dish called "Braciole" that one of the ladies expertly prepared for us. It's served with pockets of angel hair pasta and red meat sauce and preceeded first by Bruschetta (topped with goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes), then Italian Garden Salad. For dessert: Tiramisu ice-cream cake - a perfect ending coupled with news of some exciting changes and answered prayers that are happening in our midst.
St. Patrick would certainly approve!
