Do you have “Themes” for the days of the week? I do – it helps with meal planning. Mondays in our house are known as Mello Monday. It means, unless something really special is happening like a birthday or anniversary, Monday night our supper is simple.

Have you ever had one of those days when you think you know what your are doing, but it turns out you really don’t? Yeah, that’s a bummer. On the menu I had planned Italian Sausage Sandwiches. While that’s what I eventually made, it wasn’t the recipe I had planned.

On the Saturday immediately following the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we celebrate yet another feast involving hearts. This is the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Hers in not to be confused with or equal to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Continue reading “Mary’s Immaculate Heart”Blessed Be the Sacred Heart
The Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is another of those pesky moveable feasts. Like so many feasts, this one is tied to Easter Sunday, which is also moveable. Here’s how confusing the date is. The Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus falls on the Friday that follows the second Sunday after Pentecost Sunday, which is 50 days after Easter. It is the Friday following the Octave of Corpus Christi.

Did you know that at the beginning of June, it was Black Bear Day? Yep, June 3rd was National Black Bear Day. And today is National Photograph Nature Day. So I thought why not tie the two together?
