Lots to do today. I have to get some stockings made because next week I'll be in the fudge! I also have to check the inventory for our shows and start packing up the travel carts that we will be taking with us. Plus the house is a wreck. I wasted too much time on dumb stuff so I am going to limit my facebook time to 15 minutes. I sit down at the computer intending to just check orders and the website and the next thing you know I'm planting sunflowers in FarmVille. Enough! LOL!

Later today I'll be pouring some more of our grungy Harvest Home candles. I love the scent of Harvest Home!!!

Thursday of the Twenty-seventh week in Ordinary Time
Today the Church celebrates : St. Pelagia
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 11:5-13.


And he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend to whom he goes at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey and I have nothing to offer him,' and he says in reply from within, 'Do not bother me; the door has already been locked and my children and I are already in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.' I tell you, if he does not get up to give him the loaves because of their friendship, he will get up to give him whatever he needs because of his persistence. And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. What father among you would hand his son a snake when he asks for a fish? Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg? If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
