Soda bread recipe is-

450g wholemeal flour
175g plain flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
450ml buttermilk(approx)

Heat oven to 200c.
Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl.Pour in enough buttermilk to make a soft dough like consistency.
Put mixture on a board dusted with some wholemeal flour and knead lightly until smooth.
Form the dough into a circle about 11/2 inches thick and put onto a baking sheet.Put a deep cross on top of the dough with a floured knife.Bake for 40 -45 mins or until it sounds hollow on the bottom.
When cool wrap in a tea towel and that's how you keep it.Dont put in a plastic container etc."

The firm I used to work for always had special theme days monthly and of course Paddy's day was a top one. I remember being asked to make neeps??? (I passed that one over) and the mashed tattie thing with shredded cabbage in.
Also made peat bog muffins, green scones with kiwifruit jam and green whipped cream on top.
I still remember a dear man called "wee Johnnie" who dressed as a leprechaun, complete with his bottle of Jamesons under his arm.

kinna54, I took my turn at being Home Room Mother when I had children at school in the USA and I had to organise a St Patrick's Day party with a green theme.There were vile green cupcakes and green icy drinks called Slush Puppies, as well as every ghastly green candy you can imagine....

neeps are turnips that are mashed, and you could make a sally lun with the pertaters.
