Luck of the Irish

There is just a little over a week left before St. Patrick's day and I'm excited! Weird, right? I've never really even thought about this holiday until I saw this:
Mmmmm, come to momma!
I've seen these on a few cooking websites, but the above picture is from Wee Kitchen. I have to make these cupcakes. I'm in love with them! I'm not sure eating only rainbow cupcakes is the best for my family, so I've been looking up some other things to make on St. Patrick's Day. Since my family would totally boycott any haggis or corned beef, I'm thinking we'll stick with shepherd's pie and I might try my hand at some soda bread.

** UPDATE! You can find a recipe along with a chart on which/how much food coloring to use here. **
Are you celebrating St. Patrick's Day? How are you making it special?
