Tomorrow is St. Patty’s Day and since green is so not your color, we’ve suggested a few other ways to get into the spirit. (Oh, go ahead and kiss him. He says he’s Irish.)

Ooh La La Cupcakes just opened their second Katy location and they’ve created yummy chocolate stout cakes topped with whipped cream that mimic a frothy draught.

Bottoms up at Branch Water Tavern, where $1 reuben sliders with corned beef, housemade sauerkraut, Russian dressing, gruyere and toasted rye are always on the menu (4 – 7 p.m Monday – Friday).

Go green this month with yummy treats from Michael’s Cookie Jar in cute shamrock and leprechaun motifs. The all-butter creations also come in Rodeo shapes right now and they deliver, so giddy up.

Make a festive shamrock brooch for $3 at the very-cool Sew Crafty. Drop in and use their materials and easy instructions.

Speaking of green, have you tried the Thin Mint ice cream at The Chocolate Bar? The two locations only serve the special flavor, made with the Scouts’ cookies and fresh mint ice cream, two months each year.

Shake your shamrocks at EaDo’s block party. The bars open at 7 a.m. tomorrow with bowls of Lucky Charms for breakfast. Lucky’s Pub is the hub of the event, featuring green beer, two biergartens, bagpipers, performing leprechauns and 10 bands through the night.
