From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. James 4:1-3

    The Irish are a proud bunch. Loyal friends to the end. But if you befriend them? Well that’s a whole different glass of ale.

    Well, Irish means love!
    They love God!
    They work hard & party hard, too!
    Very kind & fun with their folklore superstitions!
    Leap year, four leaf clovers, rainbows, pots of gold, leprechauns, fairies, soda bread, corned beef, Irish stew, ale! So much to love and we love it all!
    Thank you, Ireland!
    And, thank you to the courageous and resilient Irish immigrants who carried on their wonderful traditions here, in America!!
