I had some plans for today's feast, The Feast of St. Michael (The Professor's confirmation name saint and personal patron), that included trying to make a pull string pinata out of a paper bag but God made it aware that other plans were more important. So, my simple celebration today included picking up a small pre-made cake piled high with brownies and frosting creating the look of a mount... we called it
our Mont Saint-Michel cake.
The Professor helped pick it out. We also took some time to check out the real Mont Saint-Michel and told everyone the legend behind the famous Abbey. Apparently, if you are a bishop and St. Michael comes to you in a dream, you better pay attention because you don't want him to poke you in the head (and burn a hole in your skull)!
Not a great picture but Cupcake was so excited! And you can see the mounded top better.
The Professor also let us borrow his custom designed St. Michael mini-figure...because he's awesome like that!
That's a great statue you have there! I love the picture with Cupcake. Blessed feast day to you and yours! Especially the Professor!
ReplyDeleteI was also admiring your St. Michael Statue, ours got lost in one of our moves (not sure how) and we need to replace it, I like this one quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteThe cake looks so yummy!
