I wanted to thank everyone for taking the time to participate, comment (or do both!) during my "Got Green? Blog O'hop (version 2.0') last Friday.
I had a great time reading all the official - and unofficial - entries and it was hard picking the winners, but after a second helping of ham and cabbage and a few pints of the Black Stuff, the choices were chosen.
I have linked each winning entry via the post writer.
If you haven't already, please stop by and I promise you'll enjoy a great yarn, a couple of true stories and I mustn't forget the French Connection :)
... Here, mister conductress, can I get a bodhrán roll please...

Congratulations to the winners. I had great fun too even if I didn't enter. Thank you again for making my day with that song! Best of lucks with your challenge.
OH MY GOSH! Really?
Well...wow! Thank you Mark. I do have a pretty awesome family--most of the time.
Is this where I mention that I didn't even notice there was a prize when I signed up? I just thought it was a cool topic and would be fun. I don't get to do many bloghops.
I loved Sheena-kay's leprechaun story. It was a great piece. I love stories that entertain and have a moral. I could so see this as an oral story--the gestures,voice pitch, musical beats, and the reactions of the audience circled around.
Donna's family being the survivor of the Donner Party was fascinating.
I think Elise had fine contribution--well there was green beer but I loved her green dress, lol!
Congratulations Ladies!
Thanks for the fun hop, Mark!
Hi Mark - Sia's St Paddy's party time ... looks like something we should all put in our diaries for next year?! What a great setting ...
Elise's dress was great ... and you chose all ladies - good on you! - well you and the ladies are to be congratulated ....
Good luck with your edits .. and yes, see you in May .. cheers Hilary
Congrats to the winners and, again, great blog hop...thanks for hosting :)
Congrats to the winners! Thanks for hosting!
Thanks Mark. This was great fun. I'll send the query; and no rush on it. Don't mess with that editing schedule.
I'm breaking also in April, and possibly May as well. Have a good month :)
