Irish Celebration

Sunday morning heralded church. Hard to believe that I had already been in and around San Diego for a week already. Church was good and I had the opportunity to meet more of Ryan's multitude of siblings. After church we went back home and just hung out. We played on the Wii and drank tea and made ourselves ready for the St. Patrick's Party at Jessie S. house in Escondido.
   Now I had been looking forward to this party for quite sometime. I had proposed and Irish, Guinness laden pudding for dessert which was well under way by the time we arrived. It is to be understood, this party was the monthly GBT V for march. The best part of the local's were able to make it. It was my first time meeting Kanan D. which was great fun as he and I are of a like mind and had conversed for 2 years or more since the beginning of GBT III. The party was a great hit. Lots of fun! I was clad in all of my Guinness attire (which is quite and extensive collection). Equipped with a hand selected Irish playlist. We night was fraught with laughter and debate. I had the great good fortune to get to know Jenna L. better and further my friendship with her.
   We supped of the Cabbage and Cornbeef (though I still question whether the denizens of the Emerald Isle actually eat either) Along with stew and  homemade salad. Our most gracious hostess did a mighty fine job in preparing all courses of the meal and made us all feel right at home.
   Just as we all began engaging in a most interesting discussion, it was time for Ryan and I to take our leave and collect two of his siblings and return to his home most fair. That concluded a great night of music, food, conversation and AMAZING Guinness pudding!
Alas the morning would bring my departure.
