A St. Patrick's Day blessing upon you! Although I cannot improve upon the Google web subject list, I did find this site using the search "Gaelic translation." You can learn various common phrases, such as "A pint of Guinness, please".

And for your corned beef and cabbage, we have several books on Irish Cookery.
I love corned beef and cabbage. Mouthwatering image courtesy of Epicurious.
As an aside, I am 100% Eastern European and my mom loves rutabagas, so I just assumed they were an ethnic staple. I was quite surprised to discover that they are Swedish.

Jennifer -
Do you REALLY like cornbeef and cabbage? I think you may be the first person I have met who has even eaten this.
Check out my blog - I finally got it up and running, thanks to your input and encouragment! http://villagelibrary.blogspot.com

Hi Andrea,
Your blog looks great! I really like the background colors - very verdant.
I strongly suggest that you try the corned beef and cabbage. You'r e denying yourself a pleasure in life. Unless of course you're vegetarian, or don't like cabbage, or are watching your sodium intake.
I'm Irish and vegetarian, but I miss (sometimes) CB and Cab. I still eat the Cab, however, often with colcannon!
Hi Rowan,
Thanks for your comment! I don't think I ever had colcannon, but I'm definitely going to try it. It sounds like haluski, but with potatoes instead of noodles.
