PetSugar community member Phoebe Rose had a celeb-filled St. Patrick's Day - check out the post she shared in PetSugar's Dress Up and Play Extravaganza:

It was St. Pawtrick's Day at the East Valley Animal Shelter. Celebrities including Maria Menounos (pictured above) turned out to support pet adoptions.

I know how fortunate I am and believe that "doing good is as important as looking good."

OK, this man is adorable with a bushel of four-leaf clovers on his hat. It's like St. Patrick's Day done with class! But St. Paddy's day is not known for its subtlety, not even at the Cheltenham Festival in the UK for the annual Irish vs. English racehorse. Below are some other Irish-inspired looks spotted at the festival. You choose!

Don't Just Wear Green, Eat It!

Traditionally, St. Patrick's Day is heavy on the Guinness, whiskey, potatoes, and corned beef. Together these things are not a picture-perfect recipe for health. Don't fret; you can still get into the spirit of today's celebration by eating a bevy of healthy, green foods. With this kind of diet, you won't need luck - you'll have good health on your side!

Eat Your Greens: Rick Bayless's St. Patrick's Day Green Beans For Kids

Rebecca M Gruber — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 10:00:00 PDT

Never thought you'd see your lil one pick up a green bean and eat it? Maybe it was never properly prepared! In honor of St. Patrick's Day, we're lining up a menu of green vegetable dishes that tots will actually want to eat! We asked award-winning chef, Top Chef Masters champion, and father of one Rick Bayless to share a tot-friendly green vegetable dish with us for the holiday. He's created a balsamic green beans recipe meant to entice kids with its sweet and sour taste.

I know this recipe looks uninspiringly simple - but it's exceptionally good. It offers everything green beans need: enough cooking to mellow their flavor, garlic to give them a tantalizing aroma, and balsamic vinegar's dark, syrupy, sweet-sour glaze to draw you back bite after bite.

Keep reading to get Rick's delicious balsamic green beans recipe.

Delilicious: St. Patty's Day Muffins For the Top of the Mornin'

This year St. Patrick's Day falls on a Wednesday, which means your family will be rushing through the school and work week and lucky if you remember to wear green tees (seriously, don't forget that kids pinch!). If you're too busy chasing a pot of gold to make a whole St. Patty's Day spread, add a little semi-homemade green treat first thing in the morning with healthy muffins decked out with a pinch of green.

These tiny morsels can be made the day or night before and are healthy enough you'll feel OK serving them at the top of the morning for breakfast. I chose a mix and decorated them in advance with my tots. For the recipe and suggestions, read more.
