    A kilted card from my Sister

    I received a St. Patrick's Day greeting in the mail today from my sister, bro-
    in-law, and nephew (Ziggy, the schnauzer...he's adorable!).

    There are three people on the cover, two of whom are wearing Irish National
    kilts. On the inside, the caption reads, "Remember, your kilt should be short enough to dance a jig, but long enough to hide your lucky charms!"

    This is my same sister who once gave us a convent Christmas present...a six pack of blue nun wine, and the bro-in-law who tried on my Irish National kilt at our family St. Patrick's Day dinner last year.

    That's funny Pipesndrumsnun. Thanks for sharing that.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    I have just stolen the six pack idea to be used next year on a friend of mine who entered studies to join the Carmelite Order.

    OOPS! Sorry, Jay, I was wrong...it was a four pack!
    I now know this because when I opened the 'frig this morning, two bottles are still in the box...from two Christmases ago! I don't drink at all, the Sister I live with drinks very rarely, and sometimes we have company for dinner...we are pretty boring as it were. Our preferred drink around here is definitely Diet Coke! What a wild bunch of nuns we are!

    My sister wiill definitely want me to tell you that your mom has good taste!
    Perhaps it is that "great minds" phenomena at work again!

    P.S. Two Christmases ago, my mom and sister gave me a box of Christmas cards with a photo of nuns sledding down a hill! Definitely no shortage of laughter in this family!

    Six pack - four pack - the critical point is I am going to give a Brother a pack of Blue Nuns..........
