Maybe wear a little green.
Since it's Sunday, I'll be attending Mass, where, hopefully, the choir will sing "The Irish blessing" as we leave.

My surname was the second most popular one in Ireland, and my father always celebrated with a local Irish club, though his family had arrived 5 generations before.

March 17 was also my spouse's birthday, so was remembered by friends and family.
