Welcome
Friends!
Wow!
Can you believe that January is nearly over?
In the last month there have been quite a few
changes
at LittleShamrocks.com. We have added many new
recipes to our Recipes Section, including some
that we received from our friends in Ireland.
Phil O'Brien's Brown Soda Bread, Mary Lydon's
Perfect
Scones and Potato & Leek Soup. Mmmmmmm! I
have a few more of Mary Lydon's recipes which
we will
add in February, along with more of my own.
We
are now offering more products to choose from,
as we have added more mustards, cookies, candies
and chocolates. We now have a few new pages
in the online store with one featuring our Valentine's
Day gift wrapped items and the new Chocolate
Lover's Page, which highlights all of our products
and
recipes containing chocolate. The Chocolates
and Candy page has now been separated, with
one
page
for Chocolate and one for Candy. We have also
added a new shopping cart which we think is
more user
friendly.
I
have written many new stories about our November
trip to Ireland and they will be added next.
We are now sorting out the photos I took
to accompany the stories. There is even a short
video of Willie
and the boys singing a song at Cryan's Pub
in Carrick-On-Shannon.
I
have received many lovely e-mails from people
interested in their family genealogy
which
I really appreciate and love to answer.
One person
from
Canada, whose maiden name is Reynolds,
was very interested in all the information she
read on
the web site. She is going to Ireland in
April to attend
The Leitrim Roots Festival and hopes to
learn
more about her Co. Leitrim Reynolds family.
She told
me that her ancestors were famine immigrants
into Canada just like my Michael Casey
family. There
is one lady from Massachusetts who was
absolutely thrilled to find a place where she
can buy
Butler's Irish Chocolate. It makes me very
happy to hear
things like that.
I
will be looking forward to any questions or comments
about the new products, the
new recipes
and the
new stories, so feel free to e-mail me.
Thank you for your friendship!
Slainte!
Tyna
