CF47 – Blessed are the Poor in Spirit

On the menu this week… We have some voice feedback that leads us into another discussion of the Holy Family Institute, particularly the Vow of Poverty. I also share with you the experience of renewing our vows Saturday (on our 11th wedding anniversary). And guess what! Char joins us on the show to discuss this topic! Woo hoo!

We venture into the land of the sweet potato again (where Char makes a second appearance on the show!). I also review Disney’s A Christmas Carol and talk about last week’s MacHeist Bundle, and some of the cool apps I am diggin’ right now.

Oh, and then we have the winner of our contest. Yep. You gotta listen to the show to find out if you are the one!

Join us here on the Catholic Foodie… Where food meets faith!

CF46 – Turkey Time!

It’s that time again… Thanksgiving! It is just a couple of weeks away. So, what are you doing for Thanksgiving?

A turkey recipe, sweet potato & apple casserole recipe, feedback, a book review and more! That’s what’s on the menu today. I also share about our upcoming renewal of vows in the Holy Family Institute. Char and I are very excited about this! I hope to post some pics next week.

CF45 – Soul Food

Soul Food! We are celebrating the Feasts of All Saints and All Souls. This is a time to remember that this earthly life is not the end. There is more waiting for us. This is the time to remember the Last Things (death, heaven, hell, and purgatory). This is a time to remember how important it is to pray for the dead.

In CF45 I share with you some thoughts on death… and life. Death has been a theme in my life the last couple of weeks. A friend of mine died last week. Fr. Thomas Perrier, OSB. He was 54. Died in his sleep. The funeral was Friday and it was beautiful. The church was packed, standing room only. And there were so many priests there! And four bishops! What a prayerful and solemn celebration!

And later that evening I had the opportunity to meet St. Mary Magdalene. That’s right… St. Mary Magdalene. Well, at least her tibia. As you may have heard on my last Audioboo, the relic of St. Mary Magdalene has left Europe for the first time ever. And, of all places, it was brought to my neck of the woods. I took the family Friday night to venerate that relic. Listen to CF45 to find out more!

And then, of course, we have All Saints Day and All Souls. November is a month dedicated to the Poor Souls in Purgatory. We talk a lot about Purgatory on CF45. Take a listen. And then let me know what you think! I would love to hear from you.

You’re not going to believe this, but I totally forgot to draw a name for the contest! Oh well, we’ll do that next week… So make some comments! Go to catholicfoodie.com or sqpn.com.

CF45 is a bit long, so you may want to divide your listening time. It pulls in at 1 hour and 10 minutes. Oops!

The Bones of St. Mary Magdalene

Bones? St. Mary Magdalene?

Yes, that’s right! I had the awesome privilege of venerating the tibia of St. Mary Magdalene tonight! As a matter of fact, my whole family had that privilege.

Catholic Foodie to Celebrate 1 Year Anniversary

I can hardly believe it, but I am about to celebrate 1 year of the Catholic Foodie! I published my first episode on November 30, 2009. And November is just around the corner!

I plan on ustreaming at the regular time (3PM Central) on Sunday, November 29th… which is also Char’s birthday! I want to do something special for the 1 year anniversary, but I am stumped on ideas. Do you have any ideas?

If you have a good idea for the 1 year anniversary of the Catholic Foodie, please comment below, email me at catholicfoodie@gmail.com or call me at 985-635-4974.

Thank you!

Confirmation, Reverence, & FlashForward

Archbishop Gregory M. Aymond, Archbishop of New Orleans, conferred the Sacrament of Confirmation on 78 young people in our parish Monday night. I had the pleasure, with the assistance of a number of adult leaders, of preparing these young men and women to receive the sacrament.

And I have to tell you that this was the most reverent, holy, and prayerful Confirmation liturgy I have ever attended. I was absolutely delighted to witness it.

Here is an audioboo of my thoughts concerning the liturgy… and a new TV show that has me hooked: FlashForward…

 

Listen!

 

Let me know what you think. Do you like FlashForward? Do you have any thoughts about the Sacrament of Confirmation?

Catholic Foodie 42 - Holy Meals

Catholic Foodie 42 – Holy Meals

What has been the holiest meal you have ever shared? Outside the Mass, that is.

I asked this question the other day on Plurk & Twitter & Facebook, and I received a number of replies. I share some of those with you on episode 42 of the Catholic Foodie.

I also share an amazing story about a dinner party that an old friend of mine hosted. And, somehow, I end up talking about how Char and I met and how – a number of years later – we become united in the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. Now, how did I get on to those topics?

Here are some of the links I refer to on the show:
 

As I mentioned on the show, here are a couple of pics of a couple of meals that Char and I shared on our honeymoon on Margarita Island, Venezuela. Boy, these pics bring back some memories!
