I also put some green food coloring in the toilet because that was the kids' favorite from pre-school. I hope he forgets about it next year, but he is already planning a bigger and better leprechaun trap!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05079963147864794676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6849246267797287452.post-4033363448855215932013-03-18T10:53:23.745-04:002013-03-18T10:53:23.745-04:00Never heard of the messy leprechaun and I hope my ...Never heard of the messy leprechaun and I hope my 8yo daughter never hears about this asshole either. I already have enough pretend creatures to figure out. I can't imagine adding one more single character to our annual traditions. Besides, the stupid bunny comes in like 14 days. That should really be enough for one season, I think, considering I'm still recovering from xmas! :pAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308886928301520596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6849246267797287452.post-84280874811037156592013-03-18T08:23:39.612-04:002013-03-18T08:23:39.612-04:00I never knew about the Leprechaun messy-house trad...I never knew about the Leprechaun messy-house tradition till I worked with a guy whose wife was Irish from Ireland. He was not Irish, and loathed Saint Patrick’s Day mostly because of that messy house tradition.<br /><br />It is telling, I think, that one has to clean the house prior to the Leprechaun’s visit. In our house that would be a really important requirement. Otherwise, who would notice? Oh. The leprechaun visited? Really?<br /><br />Such a tradition would never work in our house nor in the house in which I grew up. Post-leprechaun house would pretty much look like prior-to-pre-leprechaun-cleaning house. Mom, are we part leprechaun? <br /><br />See what comes of inviting a leprechaun to sleep with you?<br />Pam's Unclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18024181226974171854noreply@blogger.com
