This will be my favorite St. Patty’s Day ever. Oh yes, I’ve always celebrated with gusto and never hesitated to share the fact that Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by the Eastern Orthodox Church (Yes, the Greeks). The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland! I even have a green St. Patty’s Day shirt that I wear every year; it reads, “Kiss Me, I’m Greek.” So this year I was looking for and creating unique Greek/Irish recipes and that very day, my 23andMe DNA heritage report arrived in the mail.
