St. Patrick's Day 2008

Like the rest of the "Irish" world we had to delay our celebration of St. Patrick's Day as it fell during Holy Week. But our kind sisters invited us to their house for lunch on the 17th. They cooked spuds in our honour. the following week after Easter, we celebrated a mass and invited the locals to part-take of a huge cake specially made for the occasion.

The cake ( and a human subject to gauge its size!)
