March

March 13, 2013

The month of March brings a few things to mind. It has always been considered the "windy month" and some years it "comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb."

The first day of spring comes in March, and after a long cold winter, I am beginning to get "spring fever." St. Patrick’s Day is also in March, and it is a time to celebrate my Irish roots. I once heard an Irish saying that was pretty neat; "Never iron a four-leaf clover, because you don’t want to press your luck"! (author unknown)

If you enjoy sayings, quotes, or folklore as I do, then you might enjoy some of the books MCPL has to check out. Below are a few titles you might enjoy.

• Don’t Look a Gift Horse in the Mouth! – Amoroso, Cynthia
• The Complete Book of Wacky Wit: More than 1500 to Live By – (Tyndale House Pub)
• And I Quote: the Definitive Collection of Quotes, Sayings and Jokes – Applewhite, Ashton
