Epiphany Cheese And Bread



St. Francis in downtown Calgary transferred the Feast of the Epiphany to Sunday, so after Mass I drove out into Calgary like one of the Magi and followed a star to the Co-Op. But not before driving past a new Buddhist(?) monastery. 




You can't tell from my photo, but there seems to be a metal statue of a spider deity in front of it. Spider God, scary heathen juju, I thought to myself.



Safely back in Inglewood, we settled down to a feast of unpasteurized brie, aged cheddar, some sort of blue cheese and freshly baked baguettes. Vicious rumors of a bottle of port have no foundation in reality, whatsoever.




Got to hand it to Canada, they definitely get bread and cheese. Well done, Canadians!

God bless,

  2. Thanks to the wonders of Google Streetview, I saw the "spiders" in front of the Buddhist temple. Puts me more in mind of a minimalist statue of a saltmarsh skeeter, life sized.

  3. Those look a bit like English meat pies on the platter. You're not trying to slip those under the radar are you?
