Blessed Dia de Los Muertos to everyone.
Today I honor my name Saint, Saint Anne. No, there is no Saint Rebecca (I checked). I may just have to be the first one (Ha!). Saint Anne was the mother of Mary and the Grandmother of Jesus. She shares a feast day (July 26) with her husband, Joachim. Together they are the patron saints of Grandparents. Anne is also the patron saint of infertility, housekeepers, lace makers, seamstresses, broom makers and second hand clothes dealers. She is one busy Saint!
Today I am thankful for the harvest and those whose work brings us the food we eat. I received a bushel of apples from my Godfather's orchard last week and am making applesauce today! Thanks Uncle Jerry!
