The 8th day of Christmas... St Basil's Day!





























I baked St Basil's bread!
I also listened to the liturgy for this day (that was done on 
the new calendar Jan 1st) 


this was so fun! 
Listening, remembering the times I was at the sister Monastery (Holy Dormition) to this one,
at liturgy and at the Akathist for St Basil... and before New Years, 
the Akathist Glory to God for All Things
that you can listen to here:


Cleo was being pious and focusing on St Basil for a bit.
Later she tried to sneak my buttered bread. Ha!

The bread was really fun to bake! 

After dinner tonight, Mr Husband and I read some of our Christmas cards, 
which was great!

I hope to have 2 friends over for soup for lunch tomorrow.

I seem to have the beginnings (?) of a cold and am using lots of Kleenex.
So I better get to bed pronto!

Praying for many and that however is reading this will be blessed
and carried by Christ through their own difficulties!
