St Patrick's Day is the perfect time to put on your leprechaun hat and serve up the green beer.

Instructions

STEP 1: Think green and silly when it comes to decorations. Put up green cutouts of shamrocks and leprechauns on the walls and in the windows. Blow up a few dozen green balloons and pile them into corners.

STEP 2: Tie a few green mylar shamrock balloons to the front of the house or the front gate and screw a green "party" lightbulb into the outside light so that your guests will know where the party is.

STEP 3: String green Christmas tree lights (available year-round via the Internet) across the ceiling.

STEP 4: Place a big rock (or fake papier maché rock) right inside the entrance with a sign that says, "BLARNEY STONE - KISS FOR GOOD LUCK."

STEP 5: Pass out "Kiss me, I'm Irish" buttons to your guests as they arrive. Make everyone wear them.

STEP 6: Create a table of green munchies, including green cookies, green M&Ms and chips with guacamole (See "How to Make Food Green for St. Patrick's Day," Related eHows). Serve them out of green plastic leprechaun hats.

STEP 7: Set tables with green tablecloths, napkins and cups and sprinkle shamrock confetti on tables and other flat surfaces.

STEP 8: Serve both a traditional Irish beer (such as Guinness) and a cheaper light beer that you can dye green with food coloring; don't forget the green Jell-O shots!

STEP 9: Hold a limerick contest - after people have had a few drinks - and award a silly prize to the winner.

STEP 10: Buy a CD of classic Irish pub songs and have it playing in the background and/or rent the horror movie "Leprechaun" and have it playing (with the sound muted) on your TV.
