Happy New Year!

Yes, at one time March 25th was the first day of the year.
I found this passage in "John of Pudding Lane", by Mabel Leigh Hunt:
"Do you not remember it is Lady Day, the first day of the year 1719?  And for once your father's almanac is right, for it says: 'March the twenty-fifth.  About this time expect sleet and foul weather.' "
As soon as I read that, I knew I had to blog about it.

A Post I HAVE to Share

I came across this post, and, as a "Betsy-Tacy" and "Little House" fan, I just HAD to share it.

For Today's Solemnity (re-post, slightly edited)

In Honor of the Solemnity of The Annunciation,

I am pleased to present all the images of The Annunciation in my Rosary Art Collection, (so far!) 

Encouraging news about EWTN's Fr. Anthony

Fr. Anthony hopes to be back on the air in the near future.  Oh, HOW I'm praying for that to happen! https://franciscanmissionaries.c...
