Feasts

Michael's feast day, the feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, was last Wednesday. To celebrate, the girls and I did some baking.

As you can see, we had to sample as we went along. (This is a gratuitous Sim picture; as you can see, he didn't get to sample the chocolate, but he's darn cute, so we wanted him in there!)







The result: Mint Chocolate Cupcakes from the book Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World.



I know what you're thinking: "Vegan cupcakes?" Well, if your kids had egg and dairy issues, you'd do all you could to find ways to feed them (and yourself) cupcakes, too. And, really, these cupcakes were amazing.

Oh, and Dominican, I just realized as I looked at the picture -- black and white are the Dominican habit colors. How appropriate! :)

Dominican cupcakes! Now that's sacramental thinking. "To the pure, all things are pure!"

We always enjoy reading the blog. Say hi to the fam for us. Miss you!
