Sorry it's a day late - but I had a good excuse. I was celebrating a beloved friend's birthday. So here it is...
In honor of St. Patrick's day....What are your family roots? German, Italian, Hungaria (inside joke - let's just say that it's a good thing I teach Math and not geography)? And...Do you have any traditions that stem from family origins? This answer may have several parts to it and feel free to share more than one.
I am a European mutt. On my mom's side I have Irish, Welsh, Swedish, and I think a little French. On my dad's menno side we have a little French (I think), German, and some Russian. Any one of my family members is free to add, delete, or correct this list. As far as traditions...my cousin A. makes some YUMMY swiebach (sp?) - type of bread and my uncle D. always makes great pfernessee (sp?) for Christmas. There might be some more - but that's currently all I can think of.
