Nonetheless, St Patrick’s Day has always been one of my favorite holidays of all time to celebrate. Although my family has little-to-no known Irish heritage, my parents have always actively observed St. Patrick’s Day as if they were, in fact, Irish.

My mother had an “Irish Catholic” upbringing and attended Boston College (errr enough said). My parents got married in Boston and, to this day, it is one of their favorite destination cities.

If you do not know anything about Boston, know this: they LOVE St. Patrick’s Day. Most of it has to do with the HUGE population of Irish descendants in the area (and well, the state). My parents must have learned a lot while living in Boston because I have memories of my parents throwing the most EPIC St. Patrick’s Day parties when we lived in NY.

Anyways, moral of the story? I love St. Patrick’s Day. I love Irish music and I especially love Irish drinking songs. In fact, my family and I have taken road trips where all we did was listen to Irish drinking songs. And the funny part is how we all know the words!

So now you must be thinking, if I love St. Patrick’s Day so much, WHERE, WHAT and HOW will I be celebrating it this year? Well, let me tell you! The Wench is going to … wait for it, wait for it.
