I wear green, eat mint-flavored snacks, and play Molly Malone (aka Cockles and Mussels).

I never do anything for this day. I think it is just another accuse to have another needless holiday. I think there is enough and most of them just cause some kind of trouble anyway. :clover:

I think a large number of people use it as an excuse to drink excessively.  :silly:

That kind of surprised me, but I don't why it surprised me. You know?  :confused1:

FEAST on corn beef and cabbage and fill my freezer with more for later while it's on sale.

I was reading that people are going to protest St Patrick Day & any St Pat parade, because they said it supports white pride & therefore white supremacy.  Crazy times....

Tip:  The day after St Patrick's day, the corn beef goes on sale half off at Ralphs :)

I don't usually do a darn thing.  Work if I'm scheduled.  Play with green frosting most of the day.  That's bout' it. I've never been close to anyone who is Irish so the whole drinking green beer and eating corned beef has never been a thing for me.

We don't really celebrate it. I like corned beef, but it's really expensive in this area, so it's been years since we've had it. And this year March 17 is on a Friday, and we don't eat meat on Fridays.

That's interesting - turning a river green!  I wear green that day, and sometimes am invited to a friend's house for a corned beef and cabbage dinner.
