Kitchen Comforts: Menu Plan for Lent

St. Therese Rose Novena

O Little Therese of the Child Jesus, please pick for me a rose from the heavenly gardens and send it to me as a message of love. O Little Flower of Jesus, ask God today to grant the favors I now place with confidence in your hands .... (Mention specific requests). St. Therese, help me to always believe as you did, in God's great love for me, so that I might imitate your "Little Way" each day. Amen.

This looks wonderful and popped up on my Reader just as I was getting simple recipes together for my husband to make after I have a baby next week! Thanks!

Tortilla Soup on Saturdays sounds like a comforting Lenten tradition. I love how a pot of soup simmering all day makes the home smell so welcoming!
