Happy Birthday my 5 year old Leprechaun!

Marina was born on St. Patrick's day, almost 5 years ago.  As tradition we make a "Paddy's day feast" of corned beef, cabbage, carrots, and potatoes slowly cooked for many hours.  When Marina told me that she didn't want that for dinner on her birthday, but instead wanted "salad' I said, "OK I'll make a salad, but I'm still making the corned beef!"  She's really into salads right now, go figure.  Probably because I love them too!

Last year I posted a recipe on our Corned  Beef and Cabbage, see it here.
