And A Happy St. Patrick's Day

I want to wish a Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my Irish friends and to anyone else who enjoys a grog of green beer and all the festivities that are part of this fun holiday.


The Irish know how to have a good time, that is certain.  I am of German descent, so my holiday is Oktoberfest.  I've been known to enjoy a grog of green beer or any color beer during Oktoberfest. However, I do not have any lederhosen.  Maybe I should get a pair for the celebration this year.

[ley-der-hoh-zuhn]
plural noun
leather shorts, usually with suspenders, worn especially in Bavaria.


Origin:
1935–40; < German, equivalent to Leder leather + Hosen trousers, shorts
