Wear green for St. Patty's Day

As 4 Leaf Clover Patch Ducky says, I hope you're wearing green for St. Patrick's Day today. I am and so is my daughter and husband. Since green is my favorite colour, I am a fan of St. Patrick's Day. Have a green pint for 4 Leaf Clover Ducky today and bring yourself some luck. I remember drinking green milk in Elementary School.

I bought 4 Leaf Clover Patch Ducky a few years ago from Chicken Scratch on Whyte Avenue. He is covered in 4 leaf clovers and is a mini duck. He is always looking up and is about to catch a fish in his beak. You'll see his camo brothers and sisters in future posts. he sits on a glass shelf in my bathroom above the toilet.

Irish Rubber Duck from Dublin

Name: Leprechaun Ducky
Interests: Kissing the blarney stone and lusting after red headed girls.
Where to Find: Tourist shop in Dublin, Ireland
Brand: Unknown
Price: $3.99 Euro

I love anything green.

I found this duck while shopping for postcards in Dublin Ireland in August 2009. Leprechaun duck sat on a shelf with his brother and sister. Like any typical collector, I longed to purchase all 3 ducks for the complete set. However, my husband reminded me that there would be more ducks and this was only the second country that we had visited on our 6 month trip around the world. We also had to stick to a budget or we would run out of money for food.

Leprechaun duck has a solid weighted bottom and proudly wears his green top hat. He is extremely lucky and enjoys drinking Guinness and eating stew on the weekends.
