Irish pubs throughout the Central Coast are hosting big celebrations tonight in honor of Saint Patrick’s Day.

Green beer…as American as you can get, but behind all the drinking and decorations, there is a history.

While you’re swilling green beer, keep in mind the St. Patrick’s Day history runs deeper than your beer mug.

“I honestly. I don’t know what the history is. It’s always been just a good time with friends,” said Christine Haas of Santa Maria.

It began in the 1600s as a purely Catholic feast day, marking the death of Saint Patrick the patron saint of Ireland during the 5th century.

“St. Patrick is buried like 10 miles from my town, so to be honest we don’t celebrate it that much, so when I come here and it’s completely mad, even to come to an Irish pub is quite funny,” said Dean McKillen, visiting from Ireland.

“Well, I know St. Patrick wasn’t from Ireland,” said James Meager, Sr. of Santa Maria.

That’s true. He was born in Britain and came back to Ireland to convert the early Pagans to Christianity. According to legend, St. Patrick used the three-leaved shamrock to explain the holy trinity.

Corned beef and cabbage is an Irish-American tradition started by immigrants in the 19th century because beef was cheaper and easier to get than pork.

“We’re seeing more people drinking Guiness and Smithwicks and Murphy’s and they’re staying away from green beer,” said Josh Snow, owner of O’Sullivan’s in Santa Maria.

Commercialized or not. . .Santa Maria residents have their own traditions.

“I’ve been coming down here for 21 years and I’ve only missed three St. Patty’s day, so this is like my home,” said Roger Cheathma of Santa Maria.

A home sure to be filled to the brim.

The first Saint Patrick’s Day parade was actually held in Boston in 17-37. Ireland did not have one until 19-31.

Ok I am a college student and I also work for the college. My boss wants me to come up with fun activities for the students for St. Patrick’s Day. Does any one have any ideas??

Trust me the only thing that is fun for college students are the dances. Seriously that is the only thing that was ever fun that I went to that was sponsored by the school. Movie night ( the worst ), bowling, meet activity in a gym etc… all boring and a waste of money for the school.

I’m looking for something to make for St.Patricks Day next week. I’ve never really cooked anything Irish, so I need some help. But nothing with corned beef, is possible. Thanks for your help!

Diane’s Colcannon

INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 slices bacon
1/2 small head cabbage, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
Place potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender.
Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, reserving drippings, crumble and set aside. In the reserved drippings, saute the cabbage and onion until soft arid translucent. Putting a lid on the pan helps the vegetables cook faster.
Drain the cooked potatoes, mash with milk and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the bacon, cabbage, and onions, then transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the melted butter.

I don’t know who Diane is/was but this is yummy. I got it from a friend who got it from a friend. Happy to pass it on.

Of course it’s St-Patricks Day!! What can I turn green for the party? Or decoration ideas? I don’t want actually food, just like chips and stuff. But there’s no such thing as green chips! HELP ME PLEASE :- )

a little food coloring and you an make your own green chips but I suggest cupcakes green frosting is easy to find or make and even easier the store bought kind you can also find things like sprinkles,confetti,and tiny dots to make them more festive

Hi everyone!
I am riding my horse tommorow in a st patricks day parade. Does anyone have any ideas what i could do with my horse and myself to make us look the part?

Tanx!!

That sounds like a great thing to do with your horse. I would love to do something like that as it will build your confidence and your horses. Well why not dress up in the colours of St. Patrick??? (GREEN GREEN AND MORE GREEN!!!) Wear green clothes and maybe make a ribbon or something green for your horse. If you have any horsey items that are green make use of them tomorrow!!!!! What about a flag or a green sheet and place the ends between the saddle and the numnah so the rest covers your horses back and hindquarters. I have done that before but at halloween with a black sheet. Everyone said it was a great costume. Hope this helps. Gemma x

what are some cool things i could do on st. patricks day with my dad and my brother. outside activities. i live in a 4 season climate zone so itll be nice out. if it helps im a 13 year old boy.

Check if there are any parades ! God I ENVY you, normally I celebrate it with my cousins (we are mad Irish you see lol) but this year I’ll be spending it working in a care home for people with dementia…. =(

No sneaky pints of Guinness for me then!

But yeah parades are always fun, just spend time with your family and be proud of where you’re from!!

I bought a piece of shamrock fabric 100% cotton which is a 1.5 metre x 1 metre rectangle for $1 from Walmart… now I just need to decide what to do with it! Any crafty ideas on what to make out of it that I can use or wear on St Patrick’s Day? Thanks in advance!

I’d make a cute little apron for hosting people over for beer.

Even if you went out to the pub, you could wear an adorable green smock and play rockabilly leprechaun.

Or if you are staying home, you can go for a table runner, or placemats for your family.

My mother takes Coumadin, which has a food restriction of NO leafy vegetables (no cabbage, lettuce, celery, broccoli, etc.). A lot of St. Patrick’s Day recipes center on cabbage. What other dishes can I use? Does anyone have salad ideas?

www.allrecipes.com

they have an entire section dedicated to St. Paddys day

Decorations
Drinks
Food
Games
Etc.
Not too extravagent or expensive as I have not much time or money. Thanks

Make believe there’s a leprechaun running around the house once in a while. You;re friends will trip out!
