CF55 - King's Day Anticipation
On the menu today... a mega seafood blowout with Big D, a long-overdue date night with my honey, our Lebanese New Year's celebration (complete with grape leaves and hummus!), and the Epiphany (with a heads-up towards Mardi Gras!). We also have our first "Weekly Blog Post Recap," and we announce the winner of our contest for the book set of Time Management: A Catholic Approach.
Oh, and did I mention that Char co-hosts this show with me?
Join us here at the Catholic Foodie, where food meets faith!

We are in the Year of the Priest. And I want to share some great news with you about one priest in particular... and his new Family.
