Ruby Tuesday: A Leprechaun Who Reads

Last Tuesday Mary suggested that since this week was St. Patrick's Day maybe we would like to post things green. This is a figurine I found a few years ago in a discount store. I sat a red candle beside him to have a little red for Ruby Tuesday to go with the green. In the first shot I can't help feeling his home is in the woods you can see just outside the window and he came inside to spend a little time with me.
Everybody wants to be Irish on St. Patrick's Day. I always did. When you're wearing green on St. Patrick's Day and have red hair people seem to take more notice and ask if you're Irish. A few years ago I researched my family history. A long ago Grandfather (too many Greats to remember just how many) on my Mother's side imigrated from Londonderry, Ireland. Today I can proudly say, yes, I'm Irish!
Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone!

Irish Blessings

While doing my family ancestry a few years ago I discovered my mother's family had fled to Ireland from Scotland to avoid religious persecution. Once there they lived near the bogs.
Fearing further persecution they changed the family surname to Boggs.
I had always loved St. Patrick's Day and with my red hair everyone always assumed I was Irish; so I proudly accepted the identity.

A special note to my crafting/decorating friends ~ I got this little "stained glass" piece of work from my local craft store for $2.50. I think it looks great hanging in my bay window.


I just love this little leprechaun sitting and reading his gardening book. I gave him a few coins in a shamrock basket. If I could only get him to change them to gold!





I've posted this rainbow picture previously; however, today seems right for a revisit.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

"May you always walk in sunshine.

May you never want for more.

May Irish angels rest their wings right beside your door."
