I got my Shop Irish catalog. I'm usually drawn toward the beautiful platters or serving dishes (like the Christmas Irish Christmas Blessing Platter on page 4.) I just love the style. I think the catalog has pretty classy products.
This year, I was excited to see "Christmas Crackers". They look like something we'd use at New Years. The caption says "An Irish tradition at Christmas. Each contains a snap, a joke, a surprise novelty, and a party hat." Box of eight. HK230 $13.99
We
have Irish heritage, and my husband lived in Ireland for two years. I
think this would be fun for the grandchildren! Please comment: Has
anyone heard of this tradition before? (Wondering if it's really a
tradition.) Click here to check out Shop Irish- The premier store on
the web for Irish-themed gifts.
