Happy Feast Day!

Today is the feast of the archangels...a special day in our house with our two John Michael's. Traditionally you are supposed to mark the feast day with a berry pie,,,,blackberry? I don't remember. Here we often mark feast days by a donut run or ice cream sundaes....I've usually made a couple of berry pies already by this point in the year. Tonight, however, Maria really wanted to make her own dinner...so we are having spaghetti and meatballs, salad, and brownies. :)

That's a cool tradition! I've been reading The Catholic Home which gives some really good ideas for celebrating feast days and the like. I was gonna make St. Michael's Bannock but didn't get to it! I think we'll wait till Oct. 2 for the Guardian angels and make angel food cake.

What's Bannock??? Angel food cake on the second sounds like a great idea. I've never made angel food cake though...the recipe seems so intimidating. :)
