Am I the only one who seriously is still afraid of being pinched? Who do I think is going to pinch me? Nevertheless, every year on the seventeenth of March I scrape together some outfit with green. Today I pulled out everything I own that has any green in it at all, which is not much. In random order:
- the asparagus shoes
- ribbed tank
- short sleeved, button front, knit shirt
- half-sleeve pleated neckline top
- striped shorts
- unlined cotton skirt
- rockin’ belt
- satiny shirt dress
- aubergine, green, and tan print scarf
Since I was going shopping in the nicer part of town, I wore the dark green top, with wool trousers and aubergine sateen trench, and added the scarf.
What are you wearing this fine, green, wintery and/or summery day? And what’s for dinner? We aren’t having dinner together tonight, but I’m hoping to fit corned beef and cabbage in another day this week.
Your outfit sounds quite lovely.
I continued my annual childish boycott of green. (The kids all wore green shirts to school, of course.) Black running skirt, and blue tank top, with a ponytail wrapped in the same blue.
Now that I’m home with the kids, all cleaned up, and getting ready to fix supper, stone cargo skirt and blue scoopneck tee.
We are going very green with supper though:
Chicken Lemongrass Skewers, loaded with fresh (and green) basil & cilantro
Sticky Rice, topped with more cilantro
Garlic Green Beans
We’ll probably have corned beef & cabbage next rainy day.
Joy – I’d choose eating green over wearing green any day! Your dinner sounds wonderful!
I wore a green (chrysoprase) ring. 😉 Otherwise, I buck the trend.
Dinner was a feta & spinach omelette, carrots, and rice.
I do have a very nice emerald ring. Perhaps that would suffice.
Your dinner sounds wonderful too. Here’s what I did, you ladies will appreciate it and it actually turned out to be quite tasty: heat a quart of homemade chicken stock to boiling (not only was the chicken stock homemade, but the chicken was too, albeit not by me), throw in leftover steamed broccoli and parsnips, basmati rice, and alfredo sauce. Cleaned out the refrigerator and had a gourmet meal in 10 minutes!
I wore a kelly green J Crew cashmere V-neck sweater and a black jersey skirt (it’s still cold here in southwestern Ontario) AND a huge button that says Kiss Me I’m Irish!
