I can't wait to see what the plans are for "my" pub (Connolly's of Leap), which will reopen as a music venue before the year's end. We're only a few miles from there now!

My family came to America during the Revolutionary War from Tyrone. I was lucky enough to visit our crypt. I love champ and turkey for Christmas is the best.

This brings back memories - when I was growing up, my favorite dinner was mashed potatoes and peas, which I would mix together and was quite similar to your recipe.
