No, they’re not Saints for an All Saints Party. Our Catholic School can’t seem to let go of the Halloween “Spook-a-thon”, but I can at least insist that we have Friendly Halloween Costumes, without the gore or the scare factors.

a new look at Guardian Angels! Book Badge Review: "Send Me Your Guardian Angel"
October 8, 2011 by 7 Comments
Happy Feast of the Guardian Angels!
“Send Me Your Guardian Angel” is not just an inspiring testament to St Padre Pio’s holiness. It does remind us of his stigmata, ecstasy and conversations with Jesus and Mary. It also reminds us of how revered he was during his lifetime. I’m still picturing the little italian ladies chasing Padre Pio with scissors, eager to snatch pieces of his clothes for relics!

Top Ten Ways to Recycle an empty Peanut Butter Jar

1. Travel Ice Box: nice and cold, no leaks and melts into refreshing drinking water! Fill with ice cubes…just don’t fill the whole jar with water and freeze because the plastic jar will crack with the lightest of taps on a counter. Trust me.
