Well, we've reached another Wednesday and less than a week to Saint Patrick's Day.
I must admit that when I think about Saint Patrick's Day the first thing that comes to mind is a pint of Guineas, straight from the tap in a good old Irish Pub. sigh!.
In the absence of Guineas, I've turned to chocolate and made some simple choc chip cookies with green m&m's. These little treats are a simple and easy way to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. With the remaining yellow m&m's I've created a pot of gold that should help me catch any leprechauns that are hiding in my garden.
Enjoy
