Paddy's Woes

Saint Paddy’s Day came and it went.
A gastronomical event.
	the food was spot on,
	my arteries groan
I’m sorely in need of a stent!

I had to google colcannon - that looks pretty good. I might try to make it. (I'm a vegetarian, and all the ingredients look great). I guess it makes sense an Irish dish would have potatoes.
