Mint Chocolate M&M’s Cookies Recipe

When I was a kid, I wasn’t a big fan of St. Patrick’s Day. I didn’t dislike it, I just didn’t think it was anything special. Sure, I’m a wee bit Irish, but I always forgot to wear green & would usually spend the day telling people my underwear was green since they couldn’t prove it wasn’t {otherwise, I’d spend the whole day getting pinched!}.

Now, however, it’s moved up my radar a bit. Justin is also a wee bit Irish, which means my kids are, too, so it’s fun teaching them about their family history. Green also happens to be Shane’s favorite color, so he loves St. Patrick’s Day decorations and treats! Kids just make everything more fun, don’t they?
