Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival

Sunday Snippets is brought to you each week by RAnn at This, That and the Other Thing.

This week has been a busier blogging week than I thought it might be.  I guess 2 major snow storms have finally caught up with me!

Last week started with my proposal for Lent: giving up Facebook and message boards.  Then I blogged about the proposed changes to DSM-5, posted a recipe for red bean chili, and an idea of spring cleaning for Lent.

I posted 2 videos for the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes,  talked about a gorgeous blog I came across (Trail of Flowers) and included some thoughts of beauty in the same post, and, lastly, I posted a Valentine from Jesus.

Happy St. Valentine's Day, everyone!

And a happy Saint Valentine's day to you, too, Dymphna! The "Valentine from Jesus" is the most beautiful one I've ever seen; thank you for sharing it.

I love your new background. And I agree, the Valentines from Jesus is very special and beautiful.

Thanks! I decided we've got too much snow in reality to also have it on my blog. Beauty is what its all about!

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
