It’s been a lovely day and a busy Sunday which is not over yet, but I’m taking a few moments to link up with RAnn for Sunday snippets, a weekly gathering of Catholic bloggers sharing their week’s posts.
Question of the Week: Have you ever tried the Liturgy of the Hours (Divine Office)? Why or why not, and, if so, is it something you pray regularly?
No, I have not. I don’t have any kind of formal prayer routine, which is something I would like to remedy at some point. If there is one things I would wish it is that I could be more holy. Sigh.
Now for the round up:
I was out of town from Tuesday night until Friday night, visiting my sister in Dallas, and despite good intentions I did not write a word while I was there. I did, however, post a few things at the beginning of the week, which I hope you will enjoy!
A post about what’s going on in my garden right now.
Two photo posts, for new linkups I am participating in: Silent Sunday and My Sunday Photo.
Thanks for reading!

The popular story of the First Thanksgiving is a myth and it is time for us to reckon with it. How can we celebrate more authentically?
Michael Gerson has died of cancer at 58. I remember reading this one before and it is especially poignant as the last of our five kids will go to college in the fall.
