It's getting to that time for Lenten dietary adjustments. You know, fish on Fridays. Give up that chocolate. No movies till after Easter. Lent. It seems like we just put the Christmas ornaments away, and here it's Lent already. (wait, we DID just put the Christmas ornaments away. Janet's been after me to vacuum up the artificial Christmas Tree needles up, and move that Santa Claus off of the hutch in the dining room.) Anyway, if you haven't attended a Hibernian Shrimp event, you have missed out on a great Downtown Tradition.
You can't get a better plate of shrimp in the city. Shrimp, baked potato, coleslaw and corn all for an extremely reasonable price. And the company!! I see folks get together yearly at Redemptorist, just for the company. And I usually get to work the foodline. That's my favorite. I love seeing the people. The guys who put the dinner together, Bill Quinn, Don Burnett, Steve Page, John Phelan, Frank Stapleton, Tombo Burke, Jim Callahan, Tom Laughlin and all - it's a great time of working together. Everyone's in such a great mood and the whole thing works together like a machine.
I just look forward to it each year and work as many of them as I can.
Make it a family tradition.
