I am really loving your blog! I am not sure about this specifically but the reference to St Patrick banishing snakes from Ireland could be a euphemism for his converting the druids to Catholicism. When I was a pagan witch, some of used to post things online on St Patrick's day that had a little arrow pointing towards our profile pictures,with the caption, "Hey St Patrick! You missed one!" 🤦‍♀️

We thought it was clever anyway lol.

SO glad to be on the side of St. Patrick now!

That's a really interesting take on the banished snakes, and makes sense. And does make for a clever byline, giving credit where it's due!

Thank you so much for reading, Laurie!

Waiting for Spring seems to take forever…but in the meantime, we food gardeners can rest, marshaling our energy for the next 7 months of planting/weeding/harvesting/putting up…!

So true! I have to remember the exhaustion that sets in by October.
