Do you associate St. Patrick's Day with drinking green beer?
There is an variety of Irish beers that you can try, besides Guinness. I think it would be festive to incorporate an authentic Irish beer selection into your St. Patrick’s Day celebration, in lieu of that stank, green-food-colored-beer that has become the norm. I will admit that I have celebrated St. Patrick’s’ Day in the past by raising a green beer in a plastic solo cup, but I think it’s fair to say that my green beer days are gone for good.

I have always wanted to grow a shamrock plant. And of course, Martha Stewart has a "how to" tutorial on growing shamrocks.
