“I believe we can…at any time, pick up a paintbrush and create a new fork in the road to travel that may lead us each to our authentic home, which is deep within, and outward again to our right place in the world.” (Pat B. Allen in Art is a Way of Knowing)

A bit o’ the Irish for you — a cheerful mix of white bone china, vintage plates, and my favorite mint tea ~~ all in a field of clover.
My favorite Irish lullaby ~~ as my grand-daughter Annabelle sings it to her little brother, Jude, and baby sister, Vivienne ~~ taught by her paternal grandmother:
O’er the seas and islands,
Many years ago,
My mother sang a song to me
A song so sweet and low ….
Tura Lura Lural
Tura Lura Lie
Tura Lura Lural
It’s the Irish Lullaby.
To you ~~ My favorite Irish Blessing:
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
Happy March and Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
