March 1st -- St. David's Day
Earlier today I posted a bit about the Welsh Saint David's Day: March 1st.
Unfortunately the "Google Translate" app. misled me, so that my posting in Welsh had to do with St. Valentine, rather than with David of WALES. ( thanks Annie R for pointing this out).
The symbol for David of Wales is the leek; probably because he was most likely a vegetarian.
Who wants to wear a Leek as a buttioner (sp?) . NOT A SOUL.
Thus the Daffodil has supplanted the leek as a symbol for Wales.
TOSH! Long live the Leek.
Sautéed in Coconut milk; with a Welsh lamb chop, and Baby potatoes. Coming soon to my stomach!
Who could ask for anything more?
