My two cents' worth on communion (late, as usual) - Episcopalians, among other denominations, do communion - my church does wine (with water added) and thin wafers; some people take only the wafers, some people don't let their children take the wine, some people sip from the communal cup, some dunk their wafers in the wine. It's open to anyone who's been baptized - any church, any time, any condition (one friend, baptized in a plastic bucket by her mother and "hippie aunt," using the Book of Common Prayer, was told that, yes, it was good). Unitarians, except one church, don't do communion - symbolic ritual cannibalism, is how it's been called. There was a fuss a while ago about a little girl who wanted to take communion but couldn't take wheat - her parents got special rice flour wafers ... and the priest refused to use them, said that if she didn't take the wheat wafer, it wasn't communion. People get weird.

Beldar looks cuter than any dog has a right to.

I think they should bake the communion wafer in the shape of a bread bowl. Then pour in French onion soup, with a little wine in it... you could have a popular lunch special.

I went to see a band on Friday, and that was good, although by the time I got home I was slippery with sweat and my feet hated me. I went to lunch with friends on Saturday and had the best waffles ever, I flailed about Doctor Who for hours, and my foot took a hit out on me. Yesterday I spent the day lounging in bed with a stack of DVDs, and that was pretty good, too. Today I bought train tickets so I can go to my cousin's wedding at the end of the month.

Seriously, though, waffles with fresh strawberries and blueberries and toasted pecans.

shrift wins at weekend!!

I didn't mean to imply that your epiphanatic (I doubt that's a word...) dreams were whacked out...just that mine are, which comes as no surprise to me. My sleeping brain is really squirrelly.

OK, I'm off. uhg. DO NOT WANT.

Beats the heck out of mine.

Congratulations on the new baby Jessica! He looks perfect. I hope you are doing well and that your husband enjoyed his first Father's Day.

And the coffee was fab, and the BACON. And my foot eventually stopped trying to kill me. I think. I hope?

It wasn't the best weekend ever, but I've had worse.
