Saint Patricks Day Festival in Dublin, CA 2016

Saint Patricks Day Festival in Dublin, CA 2016
Fun Facts about St. Patrick’s Day!

THERE’S A REASON FOR THE SHAMROCKS
Ever wonder why the shamrock is associated with Saint Patrick? According to Irish legend, the saint used the three-leafed plant as a metaphor for the Holy Trinity when he was first introducing Christianity to Ireland

THERE’S NO CORN IN THAT BEEF
Corned beef and cabbage, a traditional Saint Patrick’s Day staple, doesn’t have anything to do with the grain corn. Instead, it refers to the large grains of salt that were historically used to cure meats, which were also known as “corns.”

THERE ARE NO FEMALE LEPRECHAUNS
Don’t be fooled by any holiday decorations showing lady leprechauns! In traditional Irish folk tales, there are no female leprechauns, only nattily attired little guys.

IT USED TO BE A DRY HOLIDAY
For most of the 20th century, Saint Patrick’s Day was considered a strictly religious holiday in Ireland, which meant that the nation’s pubs were closed for business on March 17. In 1970, the day was converted to a national holiday, and the stout resumed flowing.

    Client Reviews

    5/5

    It has really been a pleasure for us to work with Rama Mehra who helped us buy our first home. We were first time home buyers and Rama guided us patiently throughout the buying process. She understood our requirements and budget constraints and gave us a realistic picture of the market situation and showed us the inventory that met our constraints. She is an area expert in Tri-Valley region and she keeps touch with her clients even after the escrow process, keeping them updated on the market performance. We strongly recommend Rama and will be glad to do work with her for our future real estate needs.
