Our produce is finally coming through in abundance and we are eating loads of lovely fresh fruits and vegetables. We are also getting ready for Jerome's birthday next week. The feast of the Dormition (or Assumption) is Saturday, and that means a family celebration. We noticed that we had a kind of gruesome tradition going on accidentally. We fried food on the memorial of the Maccabees, and we are grilling chicken on the feast of Saint Laurence. Maybe our dinner can levitate and fly into the air on Saturday?
