"Welcome to WiseWomenUnite.com -- When adult children marry and leave home, life can sometimes get more complex instead of simpler.  Being a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law can be tough.  How do we extend love and support to our mothers-in-law, adult children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren without interfering?  What do we do when there are communication problems?  How can we ask for help when we need it without being a burden?  And how do our family members feel about these issues?  We invite you to join our free forum, read some posts... and when you're ready...share your challenges and wisdom."

A little Valentine sympathy for DS/DH - the man in the middle.

I had to look up soda bread and colcannon (I'm food illiterate).  They both look yummy.

They are delicious, Pooh. My dad makes soda bread every year for St. Patty's Day. Clover, we only make it once a year too. I think I ate two loaves myself last year, though.

I'll post my recipes once I dig them out.  If you want to make the soda bread, you can either start soaking raisins now in whiskey or wait till the day before and soak them in some warm apple juice.  It's just to plump them and make them sweet and flavorful. Colcannon is a potato cabbage mash that tastes wonderful.  Soda bread is a sweet dry bread that pairs great with butter or with the flavors of the corned beef.   I don't use caraway seeds in mine, but some prefer them if it's meant to be served with more savory items.  Corned beef, I imagine, is self explanatory, but if not, it's beef soaked in a flavored brine for a long time and then cooked with cabbage, onions, potatoes, and carrots (yes, I have two different types of potatoes on St Patty's Day).  For dessert I usually make a pistachio ice cream torte (layers of ice cream and angel food cake).  Can you tell I'm excited?

Oh, many thanks for correcting the capitalization.  I must've missed an interesting time.

It was interesting, Clover...that's for sure. We had people who got into it and then modified their posting so the responses didn't make any sense and then to really confuse issues, whole posts were deleted.

I thought we had come to the conclusion some time back that everything is Laurie's fault, right?
