Go green

Some of my ancestors hailed from Ireland and my favourite colour is green. Over the years I've amassed a range of green items, including tops, pants, jackets, shoes, jewellery (alas, beads rather than emeralds) and bags. I try not to wear them all at once ...

Anyway, here's a green-themed recipe collection to celebrate St Patrick's Day!

Couldn't resist buying these tabi socks when

we visited Japan in January
