Welcome to the first week of the Lenten Meal Plan Monday Link-Up for Lent 2013. The first week of Lent is always a big week with both Wednesday and Friday being meatless meals. I started this Link-Up last year as a way to share meatless meals with others and to get new ideas. The response […]

7 Quick Takes Friday 4/6/12 {Volume 21}
Has everyone had a good holy week? Today is Good Friday. I always thought it was cool that today is the one day of the church year that Catholics can’t celebrate mass and hold a “service” like our protestant brothers and sisters. Although technically Holy Thursday till the Easter Vigil (The Triduum) is supposed to […]
