Yeah! Lent is over.... For as long as I can remember, Easter Saturday morning has been my favorite time to go to church. Being Polish, (AC is 50% and Elizabeth is 25% and we love Jarod despite the fact that he isn't) we celebrate Swieconka or Blessing of the Food. This wasn't typically something celebrated in the Indianapolis area since there isn't a big Eastern European population. But, 4 years ago, we happened upon our Pastor during dinner at Fazoli's. We asked him if he would start the tradition at our parish and it has consistently grown every year. Each family brings a basket with a small meal to be shared on Easter morning... Homemade sausage (thanks, Grandma!) eggs, bread, butter, salt and candy are typical contents. And this year, our basket had some rice cereal and butternut squash, too! We're so excited to keep this tradition going....
