An Irish Blessing:

May the roads rise to meet you.
May the wind be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
The rain fall soft upon your fields
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

CONTEST--
CONTEST--CONTEST

Challenge:
My ability to knit was said to be "genetically guaranteed" by several family members. This is because of the two nationalities that form my heritage.

Question #1: what two nationalities contruct my heritage?
Question #2: the literal translation of my name (in only one of these countries) is "Springtime Maiden" or "Springtime Girl"... what country would this come from?
Question #3: what two knitting skills should I be "genetically" expert at if there were an inherited basis to knitting?

Rules:
  1. only one guess per person
  2. you need to answer at least one question right to be entered
  3. if you answer all 3 right, you win! (if more than 3 winners, a random selection of 3 will take place)
  4. All "1 right" and "2 right" entries will be pooled and winners drawn at random
I told you this contest would have multiple winners and it will be easier than you think! One more thing, contest ends next Friday: March 24th--- my blogaversary. :)
