I don't remember if I've mentioned this before, but my favorite holiday is St. Patrick's Day. And not because I'm looking for an excuse to party or because I like gimmicky things like green beer (ew). I'm actually half Irish, though I definitely take after the non-Irish side of the family. As you can imagine, I'm also really into the musical aspect of March 17th....bagpipes are my favorite instrument behind only the banjo (and maybe the accordion). I love the Celtic influences on bluegrass music, and I certainly will never say no to a good Irish drinking song. Unfortunately, the Irish aren't exactly known for their cuisine. And so, in my first attempt to make this blog about something more than just food, let's chat about Columbia's annual St. Pat's in 5 Points festival.

There are only two kinds of people in the world: The Irish and those who wish they were.
