Green Ideas

It's daylight savings time again -- one very green idea, as it extends those delightful "before you turn the lights on" evening hours.  But generally speaking, when you think March and Green together, you're thinking of St. Patrick's Day.
It's been unseasonably warm, which means this year even Mother Nature is putting on the Green.  It all got me thinking, what other things can one do to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, other than the obvious parade and pub crawl?
A few ideas:
The Montclair Animal Shelter is hosting a special reduced-price adoption afternoon on Saturday from 2-4pm at 77 North Willow -- Erin-Go-Bark/St. Catrick's Adoption Event.  (Ok, so it's a little heavy on the word play, but everyone's heart is in the right place).
Or as the temps are still dipping in the evening, how about an Irish fisherman's knit sweater from Irish & More, a local shopping institution for all things from the Faire Isle, at 16 Church Street.  Follow that with a stop at Raymond's for some of Joanne's limited edition Irish Cream Marshmallows and green sugar-edged cookies if tippling isn't on your menu.
