<p>Love those limericks, what talented people!!!</p>
<p>They weren’t the color of porridge
Nor the color of fruit like an orange
Tho they provided us fun
We now must all run
From the thread or be hit by a door hinge</p>
<p>OK- so it doesn’t make much sense. I haven’t have my morning coffee yet</p>
<p>Retrying the ending:
Tho they provided us fun
We now must all run
As the greenies are now put in storage</p>
<p>A poster on CC, forlorn
From her greenie buddies was torn
Visiting the past
She found, at last
The greenie friendship reborn!</p>
<p>The short lines aren’t quite right - but I have to get ready for work and couldn’t spend any more time fixing it!</p>
<p>Just needs an extra word, like:
“When touring the past
She found that at last” </p>
<p>and maybe one less syllable in the last sentence, like
“Discovered green friendships reborn”</p>
<p>Of course, that said, yours is fine!</p>
<p>In one month we will celebrate Green
On the Sunday of March 17,
As we honor St Patrick
With a party fantastic.
CC was prescient with green, it would seem.</p>
<p>In today’s paper [Decorating</a> with emerald green, the color of the year](<a href=“http://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/home-and-garden/decorating-with-emerald-green-the-color-of-the-year-1.4667276]Decorating”>http://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/home-and-garden/decorating-with-emerald-green-the-color-of-the-year-1.4667276)</p>
<p>Effects of Green:</p>
<p>Rejuvenating: The color green revitalizes us when we are physically, mentally or emotionally exhausted.</p>
<p>Nurturing: Because of its link with the heart, green urges us to nurture others. Green is also nurturing to us - another reason why it is the most predominant colour on earth.</p>
<p>Dependable, agreeable and diplomatic: The color green helps us to see situations clearly from all sides.</p>
<p>Possessiveness: Green is a color that encourages us to want to own things and people, to collect and possess. Green encourages materialism. </p>
<p>Envy: Green with envy is a common phrase and a negative reaction to the color green.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Aha - that’s what happened to us…although I never got to the point of wanting to own people.</p>
<p>Yes, I agree NParent. Owning is too strong a word…share similar space with. I like to share space with people. :)</p>
<p>So shall we start planning our party for March 17th! Put on you green hat, mix up a pretty green drink and come see how silly your limericks can be!</p>
<p>I think I wanted to own people. I dont know for sure. But maybe. Just sayin. 
See you on the 17th.</p>
<p>I will mix the mojitos</p>
<p>Green drinks: GMT’s mojitos, Margaritas, appletinis, green tea. So what else?</p>
<p>Green beer?</p>
<p>Lime Kool-Aid, of course. And lime jello shooters.</p>
<p>I’ll bring the kale.</p>
<p>Kale chips or massaged Kale np? That was the first thing I thought of because of recipes lately! I am thinking green dips- pesto, guacamole, maybe green goddess (have to look that up).</p>
<p>key lime pie…mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm</p>
<p>Now Key Lime pie is not really green, they put food coloring in it.
The Key Limes appear to be yellow. When I make Key Lime pie I use bottled juice from Key West, and we never add food coloring. </p>
<p>Spinach dip, is that the one they put in a hollowed out round bread?</p>
