Dinner C

I was so excited when I realized the happy coincidence of our C dinner falling on St. Patrick's Day! My mom used to make corned beef and cabbage on St. Paddy's when we were kids, but Josh isn't a huge fan, so he isn't overly excited for us to continue the tradition. But how could he argue with the perfect coincidence of C dinner falling on St. Paddy's?!

Crudités:
     cauliflower
     carrots
     cucumber
     celery

Corned beef
Cabbage
Colcannon (a traditional Irish dish of mashed potatoes and cabbage. We added bacon, as per this recipe, chives and cheese.)

Cantaloupe
Chamomile tea
Carrot cupcakes + cherry
 with cinnamon
        cashews
        craisins
and clementine cream cheese icing

As usual, I got Laura involved by brainstorming foods that start with the letter, shopping for those foods/ finding foods we didn't think of at the store, helping to cook, and finding all the letter of interest on a written menu.
