Holy Week and Kilted Confusion!
Hey, there! Happy Easter one and all!
Well, us nuns are pretty much in Church all week this time of the year. As any good X-Marker would agree, that leaves plenty of opportunities to wear the kilt! 
On Friday, a lady at Church said, "Sister, are you Scottish? My husband said at Church last nigh, 'Sister always wears Scottish plaids." I told her that I had Scottish and Irish ancestry, and she was excited because she does, as well.
Now, here comes the confusion part...for the Easter Vigil, I wore my MacArthur along with a green argylle (the one I got very cheaply from my former band's "old" uniform supply!), green hose, black shoes, and white blouse. An Irish lady at my Church said, "Sister! You sure look IRISH tonight; I LOVE your kilts!" I told her it was my MacArthur, and she was still very excited because she loves the kilt and all things Irish...I didn't have the heart to tell her it was Scottish! 
AND, I've noticed that even if the kilt is blue or red or something else, a number of people think that it is Irish. Very interesting!
