Dont know if I will have time this month or not, but the V-day swap was GREAT so I hope too! I am going to try sending a friend this way too...St Pattys day also happens to be her birthday and she's very much into crafts so I thought this would suit her well! BockBock I'll let you know for sure at a later date (by the 28th). My Irish blood may not let me willingly skip this one too easily!

Leprechauns

The leprechaun is a solitary creature avoiding contact with mortals and other leprechauns--indeed the whole fairy tribe. He pours all of his passion into the concentration of carefully making shoes. A leprechaun can always be found with a shoe in one hand and a hammer in the other.

Most leprechauns are ugly, stunted creatures, not taller than boys of the age of ten or twelve. But they are broad and bulky, with faces like dried apples. They have a mischievous light in their eyes and their bodies, despite their stubbiness, usually move gracefully.

They possess all the earth's treasures, but prefer to dress drab. Usually grey or green colored coats, a sturdy pocket-studded apron, and a hat---sometimes green or dusty red colored.

They have been know to be foul-mouthed and they smoke ill-smelling pipes calld 'dudeens' and they drink quite a bit of beer from ever handy jugs. But the other fairies endure them because they provide the much needed service of cobblery.

Leprechauns guard the fairies' treasures. They must prevent it's theft by mortals. They, alone, remember when the marauding Danes landed in Ireland and where they hid their treasure. Although, they hide the treasures well, the presence of a rainbow alerts mortals to the whereabouts of gold hordes. This causes the leprechauns great anxiety---for no matter how fast he moves his pot of gold, he never can get away from rainbows.

If a mortal catches a leprechaun and sternly demands his treasure, he will give it to the mortal. Rarely does this happen.

Occassionally, especially after a wee too much beer, he will offer a mortal not only a drink but some of his treasure.

Female leprechauns do not exist.

I do love it Texasgal!!! Thanks! I think you should post something new each day until the swap ends ;-) LOL Just kidding, I would do it if I had time!!! BockBock, looked at the dates and I think I will have a day or two to try and make something before the 9th. At the very least, I may be 1-2 days getting mine out (just an fyi) but SHOULD be ok for then, so yes...I'm in again! YAY!!! Do you need my info again or do you have it from the last swap?
To all the newbies...you're in for some fun!
