Happy St. Patrick’s Day: Let’s Make Some Green Beer! UPDATED!

Today, we’re all Irish and you know what that means? We get to not eat potatoes?!? Nope. We get to be drunk, wear green and talk with ridiculous accents. Oh, and we get to drink green beer. So, without any further ado, let’s get to the recipe.

Pay close attention, this kind of intense, but I think you can do it if you pay close attention to detail.

Step 1: Add ONE drop of GREEN food coloring to a clear GLASS.

Step 2: Pour BEER into glass.

Step 3: Drink beer quickly while showing off its wonderful green hue to everyone who is drinking with you. (If alone, take a picture and put it up on Facebook showing all the people you went to high school with that you are a fancy pants who even when alone always does it right).**

Step 4: Repeat.

That’s it! Now, get to it. Let’s get working on those “I was a little too Irish yesterday” hangovers.

Note: Best for lighter colored beers although it will turn the head of a nice pint of Guinness green as well.

**So, I finally made it home, but not without stopping at the store and picking up some beer and some food coloring and we (the misses and me) are now presently drinking said beer.

So, Slàinte everybody. See you tomorrow.

Mahalo,

Lou

Buyer’s Guide: Creepy Conan the Leprechaun Doll

Now, I’m Team Coco all the way, but this little homemade Etsy guy here is seriously creepy. Now that being said, for $7 it’s definitely a bargain, even if you have to turn it facing the wall in another room of another house in order to get to sleep. Other than that, I think it’s outstanding.

Full description from Etsy:

A Hand Sculpted 1/12th Scale Miniature Doll

Conan needs a new job ~
I think he makes the perfect leprechaun!

He wears a hand sewn, late night show-type suit,
conservative looking, except that it’s bright green.
His hat and jacket are removable, his arms are slightly bendable.

He stands 6 1/2″ tall, 6 3/4″ (17 cm), with the hat.
His ginger hair is made of imported mohair.

Not intended for children.

I would say not intended for most adults either. Especially if you’ve been drinking.

Justus’ Drunk Quote of the Day

In a study, scientists report that drinking beer can be good for the liver. I’m sorry, did I say “scientists”? I meant “Irish people.”
