All Saints Day

It was cold, windy and rainy on Halloween so we didn’t have a single trick or treater. We were ready. I bought a sixteen dollar bag of mini Snickers, M&Ms and Twixt candies at Walgreen that afternoon. The candy was already 25% off.

Today, All Saints Day, is a day of obligation for Catholics. I have a tiny twinge of longing for those rituals.

  1. Gorgeous Photo!
    A friend of mine was Catholic — always, I thought. But it turned out she became Catholic because she wanted to live in a ‘Bronte-esque’ world and fancied the rosaries and wearing scapular and performing rituals.
    (Takes all kinds!)
    (You know her).
    (The Brontes were Protestant)
