Why Saint Patrick's Day?
Saint Patrick's Day has come to be associated with everything Irish: anything green and gold, shamrocks and luck. Most importantly, to those who celebrate its intended meaning, St. Patrick's Day is a traditional day for spiritual renewal and offering prayers for missionaries worldwide.
So, why is it celebrated on March 17th? One theory is that that is the day that St. Patrick died. Since the holiday began in Ireland, it is believed that as the Irish spread out around the world, they took with them their history and celebrations. The biggest observance of all is, of course, in Ireland. With the exception of restaurants and pubs, almost all businesses close on March 17th. Being a religious holiday as well, many Irish attend mass, where March 17th is the traditional day for offering prayers for missionaries worldwide before the serious celebrating begins.
In American cities with a large Irish population, St. Patrick's Day is a very big deal. Big cities and small towns alike celebrate with parades, "wearing of the green," music and songs, Irish food and drink, and activities for kids such as crafts, coloring and games. Some communities even go so far as to dye rivers or streams green!

My best dish is probably white creamed chicken with paprika, a Hungarian dish called Chicken Papirkosh.
Brown eight pieces of chicken in a frying pan. The pieces of chicken should be about as big as what you would get at KFC.
Add a quarter stick of butter to the chicken and a cup of Half & Half creamer and dice up a small onion and add that too. Sprinkle with paprika and let simmer until it cooks down some and the white gravy starts getting thick.
Serve with biscuits and mashed potatoes. Some like to put the white gravy on the biscuits, but I put the gravy on the chicken and mashed potatoes and butter my biscuits.
It tastes great and I haven't had any for a while.

Well, I am Austro-Hungarian on my father's side and we have stuffed cabbage all the time. We call them "Halubki". You have to cook them up with ground beef, a little sausage and rice for the filling.
You also put some kolbasi in with the tomato-type sauce you cook it in for flavor.
Eat the halubki and the kolbasi together with some fresh buttered bread for a real treat.
Is that kind of like what you are talking about?
