How to make the most of Saint Patrick\u2019s at home <\/h2>\n

We would all love to celebrate Irish culture and heritage by going to a festival, but well, that\u2019s just not possible right now. Although we have high hopes for 2021, this Saint Patrick\u2019s Day we want you to celebrate safely from home. And hey, if you see a leprechaun\u2026 tell him (or her) we want COVID to be over! Maybe this is the lucky day we\u2019ve all been waiting for. \ud83d\ude09 And we know what we\u2019ll be doing if the wish comes true- immediately packing our bags<\/a>, of course! But for now, let\u2019s work with what we have.<\/p>\n

10. Get cookin\u2019, good lookin\u2019!<\/h3>\n

Saint Patrick\u2019s, like most holidays, is all about food. Some traditional St. Paddy\u2019s dishes include shepherds pie or an Irish<\/a> stout & honey beef roast. For dessert, whip up a shamrock cutout pound cake or the famous (and delicious) chocolate Guinness cake. 2021 hasn\u2019t been easy, so you deserve this. <\/p>\n

9. 2021 is all about going green\u2026 including on Saint Patrick\u2019s Day!<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s time for all of us to step up our green game. Dig your closet for your best green outfit\u2026 we all know that somewhere in that pile of unworn clothes there\u2019s something for the occasion! If you can\u2019t find anything, DIY it up by coloring your clothes green with some dye (we\u2019re all about sustainability over here). In addition to wearing green, get creative with some Saint Patrick\u2019s Day crafts!<\/p>\n

8. Support local when it comes to drinking<\/h3>\n

2021 has been a tough year for our favorite small businesses, so when it comes to your Saint Patrick\u2019s drinks, support local! Order your drinks as takeout, and we are 100% sure your business will be appreciated. <\/p>\n

7. Learn the Irish step dance<\/h3>\n

Quarantine has given us a lot of time to learn new skills, so why not try learning the Irish step dance? TikTok\u2019s and YouTube are great tools to get those steps on point. Perhaps you can even turn it into a competition, where the person who masters the dance first, wins! Most importantly, have fun while doing it. <\/p>\n

6. Get your St. Paddy\u2019s Day playlist ready! <\/h3>\n

After you\u2019ve gotten your groove on with the step dance, turn up those Irish tunes! It\u2019s 2021, so all the Saint Patrick\u2019s Day playlists you could possibly hope for are just waiting to be played on Spotify. Here are some song recommendations from us for a traditional Irish vibe: <\/p>\n
