Happy St. Patrick’s Day


St Patrick’s Day was named after St. Patrick, patron saint of Ireland.  What became as a purely Catholic holiday,  it became a feast day in the 1600′s and then gradually has turned into a secular celebration of Ireland’s culture.  Interestingly enough the original official color of St. Patrick’s Day was blue but eventually the association with the color green grew. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Patrick%27s_Day
