I didn’t know that about Halloween! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
ReplyDeleteI only new one answer, the shamrock clover is the Irish symbol and if you find a four leaf clover its a variation of a shamrock and because of that will be lucky
ReplyDeleteI am unable to play a trivia game, because my brain doesn't hold trivia facts.
I do hope you are not coming down with the dreaded UTI or a virus, prayers for you to feel better as the day passes today
Oh no, I hope you get to feeling better...and I am wearing a green lacy blouse (for work). Wishing you a beautiful day.
