Rainbow Vodka
The day that I found my lucky clover, the field was a bright green color. It's a legend in my town that if you find a lucky clover, a blessing will come over your family. My brother Pat and I were on a walk to collect potatoes for the rainbow vodka we were brewing that night when we saw the clover. I screamed and said, "Pat! I found a clover!" He looked at me in surprise and rushed over after setting down his basket of potatoes. Pat suggested we sell it for money so he could use it for his music jig that was being held the next day, but I said no.
