Objects and symbols associated with bohemianism include arrows, tepees, feathers, dream catchers, flowers, deer skulls, and other elements of nature.

A rose arrangement. Martha Stewart Living has great directions for this. You can use two different color square napkins — one for the petals and another for the base — or make a monochromatic pop-art flower out of, say, electric blue or yellow. For the base, fold the napkin in half along the diagonal. Then fold it in half again along the long edge. Repeat. For the petals, fold the second square napkin along the diagonal, take the corner opposite the longest side, and fold it up so it extends over the top....

St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner, so step away from the green beer, and consider expanding your palate outside of Guinness. These five awesome Irish beers are a great place to start.

It’s brewed with fresh blackberries, which gives it a rich color and flavor. Killian’s is probably the most famous Irish red ale, but Galway Bay’s is a lot better, IMO....

It is sung to the classic “Frère Jacques,” a tune she remembered from her own school days....
So here’s the scoop. If you see “whole grain” on a label, that means it’s any mixture of bran, endosperm, and wheat germ. But here’s the thing. If you separate those parts and grind them into oblivion, they’re not going to work their whole-grainy magic. They are lower in fiber and nutrients.
