Are you wearing your green today? Neither am I! As I am not Irish, I don't care to sport such nonsense (though BAP and SSP will). I may or may not have a green shamrock drawn on my hand or a piece of paper. However, I really enjoy making reuben sandwiches for this feast day. I thought soup sounded better this year, so I tried this with rye bread croutons.
