Thanks Mary, yes Tuesday will be fun!
Oh, yum Jenna, you are making me hungry this morning!
Oh good, thank you Carole!
For At. Patrickβs Day, I usually bought a box of Lucky Charms for my boys and called it βLeprechaun Food.β I should have tried harder. Your ideas sound delicious – and healthier!
haha, that’s perfect!
We love crazy celebrations of St. Patrick’s Day here at my house. Thanks for all the yummy inspiration.

I wish I had a rainbow cupcake in front of me right now! Sounds like you’ll be eating well this March:@)
Thanks Lynn!
Jenna, your March Paint Bucket sounds so delicious. I see you have several original recipes that I will be anticipating especially the lemon curd Bundt cake! Next week is definitely busy. Stay calm and βMarchβ on!
Thank you Pam! Another day of sunshine π
Oh Jenna, love your St. Patrick’s Day decor and I see spring has sprung at your house. I am anxious to pull things out too! So many delicious recipes here. I wanted to try your Asparagus Fries but I changed the recipe a little. I try not to eat eggs when I can so I sprayed the asparagus with XVOL spray and added the bread crumbs and seasoning. It was delicious and made a great side dish. Look forward to reading your TTT post on the first……..
Thank you Emily, and thank you for the recipe feedback, that is a great way to prepare the asparagus, so glad you enjoyed it!
So many yummies to choose from! It all looks fabulous! Looking forward to all you posts to come!
Thank you Nancy!
Everything looks yummy for March, Jenna! π
Thanks Jill!
