St. Kateri Care Package

A package arrived this afternoon, filled with all sorts of food items to celebrate St. Kateri! Hominy, wild caught salmon, bison meat, cornbread, and even some pasta shaped like "lilies" (which Mary blogged about here) for today's feast of the "Lily of the Mohawks!"  Thank you, Erica and family!

{Updated to add} The girls baked cornbread in a cast-iron skillet, while I made the pasta. I sautéd the hominy in coconut oil, with garlic and leeks, mixed in the al dente "lily" shaped pasta, and topped it with salt, pepper, and parmesan.

During dinner we read the short story about St. Kateri Tekakwitha found in More Saints: Lives and Illuminations by Ruth Sanderson.

You can find additional ideas for celebrating today's feast of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, including St. Kateri's Indian Corn Cookies, in the archives. 

St. Kateri, pray for us!
