The Catholic Foodie

Soul Food! We are celebrating the Feasts of All Saints and All Souls. This is a time to remember that this earthly life is not the end. There is more waiting for us. This is a time to remember how important it is to pray for the dead. Full show notes can be found at http://catholicfoodie.com

Tricks, treats, Halloween goodies... Oh, and then there's death and life, the Souls in Purgatory, and an important comment on ABC's FlashForward. Full show notes available at catholicfoodie.com.

A question from Nick Padley of In Between Sundays podcasts leads us into a discussion about how to eat healthily despite our busy lives. I also share some feedback and make a few announcements (including a new contest!). Full show notes can be found at http://catholicfoodie.com photo by http://www.flickr.com/photos/pinksherbet/

What has been the holiest meal you have ever shared? Outside the Mass, that is. I share some responses that I received, as well as my own answer to that question. Make sure you check out the full show notes over at http://catholicfoodie.com/content/cf42-holy-meals

LOTS of feedback today. Exciting! Also, I reveal to you the contents of a package I received this week from Bro Jerry. You're gonna love it! Got a great interview with the founders of iibloom.com as well, Mark & Katy Walker. For the full show notes, go to http://catholicfoodie.com.

Today we finish up our discussion of COFFEE! We have feedback, a bit of coffee history, and a surprise package from a listener and good friend, Shelly Kelly. Shelly and her sister Lisa are the blogging sisters over at Of Sound Mind and Spirit. If you have never seen their blog before, you might just want to pay them a visit. And what's inside the package? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out! Did you know that coffee started out as a Muslim drink? And at first Christian Europe was not too open to the Muslim's "Devil's drink." But a certain pope tried it, and... he like it! Suddenly coffee took over Christian society in the West. Which pope? Well, you'll have to listen to find out! Yes, again. I am "encouraging" you to listen to the show. Go ahead. You'll enjoy it! A few links from the show... Making Music, Praying Twice - Our guest on the next show (Sept. 27) is Kate Daneluk.

What a full show! Though I was undecided how to call the episode, I was absolutely certain of what the episode was about: tailgating (LSU-style!). We also talk about new SQPN podcasters, lots of food... tailgating food and beer! What we really want to talk about is how to take you usual tailgating fare and "kick it up a notch!" I also announce a new contest... you could win a new Catholic Foodie t-shirt or apron! We have hamburgers, lots of hamburgers (and we ain't talkin' McDonald's, baby!).
