    Funny Irish Drinking Toasts

    ​I am a mutt. A little bit of this and a little bit of that. However, I am mostly English, Irish and Scottish. And these are the most celebrated pieces of my family. having a toast for every birthday or special occasion was something that I grew up with and are some of my funniest memories. My grandfather would always use the same two toasts for the most part. And over the years, my mom has been the one we look to to say the toast. But what makes it funny, is she tends to take the 2 and mix them together. Which leads the rest of us to laugh, almost to the point of tears. It is one more memory for the bucket. 

    Looking for a fun time to use these toasts? Try some of these St Patrick’s Day Drinking Games and throw some toasts out while you laugh the night away.
