Check out our new post about today’s feast, St. Anne and St. Joachim’s Day, at Feast!

Moules Marinieres, Gateau Sainte-Anne, Sliced Baguette, Roasted Potatoes, and Garden Tomato and Arugula Salad. Yum.

We invited my folks over since St. Anne and St. Joachim, grandparents of Our Lord, are the patron saints of grandparents.

Also of note, I overheard Benjamin whilst falling asleep and snuggling with his mouse stuffed animal saying, “Oh, Mouse. I love you. I love you, you pretty ol’ girl.” What?
