This Saint Patrick’s Day you can say “Erin Go
Bragh” with offbeat candy wrapper party favors. Whether you
believe in “Ireland Forever” or just like drinking beer, check out this
interesting trivia and fun ideas for your party.
Designing Your Wrappers: If
you’re tired of leprechauns, a quick look at St. Patrick's life will suggests
many more unusual ideas. Write a headline that wishes people a “Happy Maewyn
Succat Day..” That’s Saint Patrick's given name. It’s pronounced something like
MY-win SUK-kat. If you think that’s surprisingly simple for a Gaelic name,
that’s because it’s not Gaelic. He was actually born in England.
While you’re at it you can drop in a few other
names including Saint Brigid and Columba who are also patron saints of Ireland.
There’s also Palladius, the first bishop to Irish Christians. Many historians
believe that stories about the two men have gotten blended together over the
years.
There are also plenty of Irish blessings perfect
for sharing on your chocolates. Greet your guests with a cheery saying like
“May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light” or “May you have love that
never ends, lots of money, and lots of friends.”
Presenting Your Favors: Put
your chocolates in a green bowl or a black kettle like the leprechaun’s pot of
gold. Lay them out on a piece of green fabric or cardboard cut into a shamrock.
Other Party Ideas: Enjoy
the usual traditions. Wear green clothing and drink good beer. Sing Danny Boy
and When Irish Eyes are Smiling. Serve glazed corned beef, cabbage rolls and
soda bread. And, most of all, eat your chocolate.
