"As sure as the shamrocks are growing in the land which the Irish all love, as sure as the lakes of Killarney reflect the blue heavens above - as sure as the warmhearted Irish all pay honor to Saint Patrick too, I’m wishing you “top o’the morning” and happiness, always, for you."

No matter how hectic it gets at Rattlebridge, we always manage to eat. Homemade biscuits are a favorite for breakfast or lunch, but when I'm too busy to make them from scratch,
I use canned dough.
