My mom (according to DNA, we are 94%Irish) would say when she saw someone with a twinkle in their eye, a big smile on their face and a bit of the devil in them that they looked as Irish as Paddy's pig. Believe it or not, she thought that was a compliment. I won't say that to you, but you definitely have enough of those ingredients to call yourself O'Swiderski. I was an O' .... before I married, but met a most handsome young Polish man and have kids that are the best of both cultures. However, we eat neither corned beef nor Kielbasa.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034142332858737641.post-49136262693954640162017-03-18T20:14:25.275-04:002017-03-18T20:14:25.275-04:00:):)^.^https://www.blogger.com/profile/17422876955246850636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034142332858737641.post-42135883350858147152017-03-18T16:48:20.184-04:002017-03-18T16:48:20.184-04:00I am a wee bit Irish (for real!).
