MAY THE FACE OF EVERY GOOD NEWS AND THE BACK OF EVERY BAD NEWS BE TOWARDS US. Irish Blessing
If I had a picture of Ireland, or even a picture of a shamrock, I would put it in here. But I don't, so my blog is pretty boring. But I am planning to serve an Irish lunch to my Relief Society sisters on Wednesday, the day after St. Patricks Day. We will have corned beef and cabbage, mashed potatoes with added stuff, green Jello salad, and a pretty chocolate and minty green dessert. One of the men in the ward is going to come and sing Irish songs for us. Should be lots of fun.
Have a good day and remember that we have Irish ancestors--we just can't find them--yet!!

Hey nice to see you again via blog. Remember Jane Johnston Black? She took over her father's ministerial route when her father died. That was in Ireland. Then the missionaries taught her and she joined the church. She married William Valentine Black and they came to America. They lived in Nauvoo and she attended to John Taylor after he was shot in Carthage Jail. They were expelled from Nauvoo, and she had those fistey things to say to the mob. They are at least a part of our Irish heritage, and I am proud of her. I still wish I could get a copy of the journal her husband's brother kept while they were in Utah.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, nice to hear from you. Looking forward to the lunch!!
