    Thanks Slytherin. I am not a chef, though I went to cooking school when I was young and worked in the industry for many years. And, I collect cookbooks, especially old ones. I like food, a lot.

    December 10th – St. Eulalia From Catholic Online: “She was then stripped by the soldiers, tortured with hooks and torches, and burnt at the stake, suffocating from smoke inhalation. She taunted her torturers all the while, and as she expired a dove flew out of her mouth. This frightened away the soldiers and allowed a miraculous snow to cover her nakedness, its whiteness indicating her sainthood.” *********************** The next morning, Danny woke up on the couch consumed with guilt.

    I call Isaac a loveable scamp because he really is a good guy, just a little over dramatic. But then, lots of us are!

    Thank you so much Lisa. Yeah, I do think that needing a Cayden of our own is something that rings true often. I guess we need a little help from time to time.

    Thanks so much Mike. You are so right. We should try to bring a little light when others may be feeling the darkness. It is our duty as good people.

    Thank you so much. I hope this story does exactly what you've said.

    Sorry about that. I couldn't tell it any other way. I hope you're enjoying it otherwise.

    Ian so glad to hear this is relatable. We all experience loss and that is what I'm hoping to convey. Danny is starting to heal and this is his journey. Thanks so much Cassie.

    I got the rough draft of "Heart of Stone" written. This is fun!

    December 8th - St. Nicholas From Catholic Online: “That night St. Nicholas appeared in a dream to Constantine, and told him with threats to release the three innocent men, and Ablavius experienced the same thing. In the morning the Emperor and the prefect compared notes, and the condemned men were sent for and questioned. When he heard that they had called on the name of the Nicholas of Myra who had appeared to him, Constantine set them free and sent them to the bishop with a letter asking hi

    I had "A Christmas Carol" characters, setting, ideas running wildly through my head all afternoon. So excited!

    Thanks for reading and I'm glad you liked it. I had a great time with this. *hugs*

    Can I still play? i'd like to do A Christmas Carol if its possible yet. Let me know.

    Thanks so much Cassie. Brian is a character I think. The kind of character who'd capture Danny's heart, if not a bit brash as well. Anyway, I love that I invoked some feelings about him. This is only the beginning. I hope these guys enchant you.

    Thanks so much Lisa. Yeah, it seems like an odd scenario to put in a Christmas story but I think it fits the "light in the darkness" motif. Danny will struggle with his decision. You'll see it over the next couple of weeks. Your kind words make me so happy.

    December 4th – St. John of Damascus From Catholic Online: “The biography of John of Damascus recounts at least one episode deemed to be improbable or legendary. It reports that Leo III sent forged documents to the caliph which implicated John in a plot to attack Damascus. The caliph then ordered John's right hand be cut off and hung up in public view. Some days afterwards, John asked for the restitution of his hand, and prayed fervently to the Theotokos before her icon: thereupon, his hand is

    Thank you darling. Couldn't do this without your help!

    Thanks Mike. I hope you like the rest. It's gonna be pretty emotional.

    Thanks Lisa! I'm glad you are reading Advent. I better not say anymore. You're too insightful!
  23. Cole Matthews
    Thanks for the review Cassie! I suspect people have questions about where this is going. You'll know a lot more Wednesday when the next chapter is posted. In the meantime, I've posted an excerpt in the Advent thread in the forum.

    I'm glad I intrigued you! I do like surprises and I hope you like what's coming up. Thanks for the review.

    December 1st - St. Alexander Briant From Wikipedia: “With six other priests he was arraigned on 16 November 1581, in Queen's Bench, Westminster, on the charge of high treason, and condemned to death. In his letter to the Jesuit Fathers he says that he felt no pain during the various tortures he underwent, and added: "Whether this that I say be miraculous or no, God knoweth." He was twenty-five years old when he was executed.” ********************** Danny couldn’t figure out why he was so obs
