Yesterday turned out to be very nice weather wise. We even opened windows to air out the house. We started the beef brisket at around noon, so the house smelled delicious most of the day as well. Our St. Patrick's Day meal was excellent, everything was very yummy. Doug also made apple slaw which we had been talking about for a few weeks now, it is very tasty. We even got Ana to do her rap from the school program. It took a bit of coaxing though.
