I’ll Pray for you…

As Catholics we often times use the stock response of I’ll pray for you, but what we really mean is, that’s nice… leave me alone.
So what brings on this statement of condemnation, why so judgmental? Well, I am an owner of a Catholic business and was partners in a Catholic Book/Gift shop in the [...]

The ultimate Comfort Food

Fall has seem to hit Michigan over the past week or so, this morning on my way in to work it was 46 degrees, that’s a tad bit chilly for an August morning.
