The St. Patrick’s Day LD9-LD10 fundraiser was the best ever! I couldn’t believe we could comfortably accommodate 200 people at our home, and even more importantly, feed them delicious food and quench their thirst with tasty beverages.  Everything ran so smoothly, and I am enormously grateful to everyone who helped by coordinating food and supplies, cooked mounds of corned beef, cabbage and side dishes, and baked delicious dozens of cookies and brownies.

Other than a box of salad greens, a few cans of beer and soda and half a bottle of Irish whiskey, guests gobbled up everything!

Even more important, the clean-up was superb! Thanks to everyone who left my backyard, living room and kitchen in sparkling clean condition.  And whoever had the good idea to have each candidate fill out a card for the introductions deserves a special note; we should do that at future events.

Thank you to all the volunteers who participated.  I’m grateful to all for pulling off such a wonderful event.
