For Juan Diego's Saints Day on Tuesday, the kids and I made "Tilma of Roses" sandwiches. Take a white tortilla. Cut it into the shape of a shirt with a knife. Add a smear of mustard for Our Lady's image. Place some cherry tomatoes and some curled ham slices for the "roses."
I read Nican Mopohua's "The Story of Juan Diego" which I got from my dear friend Jennifer F. at lunch. The kids payed extra attention to the story because they were eating unusual sandwich. I don't know why, but "special snacks" play a big part in our home catechism class. Thank you Alice!
