Happy St. Patrick's Day Jello !

To my amusing, Ethan has asked me to prepare some Happy St. Patrick's Day treats for his Kindergarten Classmates. I mean, seriously, if those little kids would only know the truth what the day really means, I bet with you, they would not be so keen on celebrating that day - at least not for now in their young age.
Regardless of what I think, I fulfilled Ethan's request by doing some green jello treat, making sure I had enough for Timothy's daycare as well otherwise I would never hear the end of it - trust me. You must think that I love doing jello treats. Well, to be honest, I am not a big jello fan myself, but it is extremely economical and I don't have to worry that one of their little friends will be suffering from an allergic reaction. The kids seem to enjoy all sort of jello treats since it's so giggly and sweet.
If you are in the same shoes as me and need to bring a classroom treat or even for a potluck at work, I love to share with you my Happy St. Patrick's Day jello treat recipe.
