Did you remember to wear green so as not to be pinched?
It's important to remember that today is about more than just wearing green, so to make this post not totally useless, here are some facts about St. Patrick:
-lived 385-461
-he is not actually Irish! he was born in Roman Britain and was taken as a slave to Ireland when he was 16
-being the saintly man he was, he decided to go back to the place he was a slave, and bring the gospel with him (incredible)
-he came up with an analogy about the trinity, using the three-leafed clover
-he gets credit for getting rid of all the snakes in Ireland
I don't actually have time to make this, but how cool would it be to make red velvet cupcakes (that are actually green)!
