Hey friends, happy Monday 👋
It seems like every year we make it through the October – December holiday blitz ready to swear off holidays until next year’s HalloThanksMas shebang, and with the stress of the season it’s no wonder!
However, I think that we’re sleeping on a seriously underrated holiday…
…St. Patrick’s Day, of course!

The food, the music, the shamrocks!
And I’m not just saying that I’m excited because I’m definitely going to use it as an excuse to give my dog 87 smooches on his nose (does “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” work on pets?).
What I’m looking forward to most are the freebies, because St. Patrick’s Day (March 17) and Pi Day (March 14) fall in the same week, and this year, there are some rocking deals.
🥧 What better way to celebrate Pi Day than with a FREE Pizookie (pie + cookie) at B.J.’s Restaurant & Brewhouse? Sign up for their rewards program and you’re in cookie heaven! 🤤
🍕 Papa Gino’s will have you celebrating Pi Day in style with a FREE 10” pizza when you sign up for their rewards program.
🍔 Wendy’s is offering FREE 10 piece nuggets when you sign up for their rewards program. Juuuuust the thing to round out your St. Patrick’s Day shenanigans 😉
🍗 Enjoy the holiday by spreading the green! The National Park Service is giving away FREE seed packs of either Black-Eyed Susans or Butterfly Milkweed. You can help the Earth while engaging in festivities. Win-win 🎉
🤵 Your waiter, Bill 🤵
With all the fun this week, meal prep has gone out the window and your food budget is way out of proportion.
Even though your waiter, Bill, is nice and helpful, it’s time to put the drink down and say buh-bye.
Still, it’s late and we both know Future You ain’t got time for meal planning, and Present You surely isn’t going to do it.
That’s why we recommend Cook Smarts – an all-in-one meal planning service that gives you recipes and shopping lists with your dietary restrictions in mind. **
Hello, Shepherd’s pie.
Have a fabulous day,
Kim
