What does Erin Go Bragh mean?
Erin Go Bragh translates from it's Gaelic's roots as "Ireland Eternal" or "Ireland Forever" and is something that's shouted by celebrators of St. Patrick Day all over. This St. Paddy's day I'd like to put together some proverbs, links and images before I run out and start simmering corned beef.
Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody.
It turns out blue is the color most favored in connection with St. Patrick historically. Due to the "wearing of green" or wearing a shamrock and the association with the color green with Ireland, green may have become the favored color of St. Patrick's day as far back as the mid 18th century.

Corned Beef & Cabbage Recipe
There are number of different recipes out there but you don't want to overpower the flavor of the corned beef (until you throw on some heavy mustard later).My favorite corned beef and cabbage recipe, simple but delicious sounding (Submitted by Laria Tabul to allrecipes.com).
INGREDIENTS
* 3 pounds corned beef brisket with spice packet
* 10 small red potatoes
* 5 carrots, peeled and julienned
* 1 large head cabbage, cut into small wedges
DIRECTIONS
1. Place corned beef in large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the spice packet that came with the corned beef. Cover pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender.
2. Add whole potatoes and carrots, and cook until the vegetables are almost tender. Add cabbage and cook for 15 more minutes. Remove meat and let rest 15 minutes.
3. Place vegetables in a bowl and cover. Add as much broth (cooking liquid reserved in the Dutch oven or large pot) as you want. Slice meat across the grain.
