We reminisce about the joys (and trauma) of riding bikes and playing softball as kids.  As Christen says in the episode, "A lot of blood was spilled on that road."  What do you use to motivate your children to learn new things?  A free Carvel Ice Cream did it for us as kids.  Did you know that Carvel has 191 locations around the country?!  Get yourself a soft serve chocolate ice cream with chawklet shots/ jimmies/ sprinkles.  Baseball season is upon us.  Why don't you go play ball?

Everyone’s Irish on St. Patty’s Day!  Listen as we share our love for the holiday from parades to food to music.  

Did you know The New Haven St. Patrick’s Day Parade is one of the oldest in New England and the sixth-longest-running parade in America?  Corned Beef is one of our favorite traditional Irish-American St. Patty’s Day meal, but the Soda Bread is where it’s at!  (Here’s Martha’s Irish Soda Bread recipe!)  There’s no shortage of Irish Pubs in the Northeast, but if you’re out West, Jack Quinn’s is the Irish pub in Colorado Springs that Christen mentioned and Kilkenny’s is the Irish-est pub in Tulsa, OK.

Enjoy the episode and Happy St. Patty’s Day!
