St Patrick’s Day Treat for children: “Green Eggs and Ham”
March 17, 2009
Getting creative with food is an excellent way to get your kids to try new things, and it can even make an average meal fun again.
This morning in honor of St. Patrick’s day I made for Elle-Girl ‘Green Eggs and Ham a-la Sam I Am’
Ingredients
- 1-2 tablespoons of butter
- 4 slices of Ham
- 8 eggs
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 1-2 drops of green food coloring
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
- *chopped green peppers
Melt a teaspoon of butter in your skillet and add a drop of food coloring to the butter before adding your ham slices. Add your ham and flip over in butter mixture until coated then let fry until edges are brown. Then remove from skillet and wrap in aluminum foil to keep warm, and set aside. [Read more]
Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

A 2004 US Stamp honored the imagination of Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss)
The Cat in the Hat. Green Eggs and Ham. And to think I saw it on Mulberry Street. Dr. Seuss’s ABC. Fox in Socks. Horton Hears a Who. If I Ran the zoo. Lorax.
These staples of children’s literature, created by author Theodor Seuss Geisel (a.k.a. Dr. Seuss), were created in the mid 1950’s as a response to concerns about literacy in young schoolchildren.
Youngsters can join in a birthday celebration of Dr. Seuss at the W. G. Rhea Public Library in downtown Paris, on Saturdsay, February 28, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. [Read more]
