A number of years ago, Sweet Kathleen @Cuisine Kathleen hosted her third annual, St. Patrick’s Day Blog Crawl linking lots of great St. Patrick’s Day posts. I shared recipes for Buttery Shamrock cookies, Shamrock milkshake, minty ice cream sandwiches, Irish soda bread and a Crochet Shamrock Garland.

What a fun mosaic. Love it, a great tribute to St. Paddy's day.
A fabulous St. Patrick's Day mosaic.
I'm going to try your recipe for Irish soda Bread, the one I've used is kind of dry and I like the idea of sour cream added.
Wonderful mosaics to mark a great occasion. Think I'll have to try out that Minty Ice-cream Shamrock Cookie recipe.
How precious! I often forget about this holiday. Everything looks simply delish.
Happy St Patty's Day!
