Yesterday a mysterious package landed at our front door. It came from Paraclete Press, my publisher of several books (including the Jesus Creed project). I hadn’t ordered anything and it didn’t feel like a box of books. I brought it in, grabbed my little Swiss Army knife, opened the blade, and cut ever so gently along the creases of the box to discover…
… a beautiful loaf of cinnamon nut bread with a jar of the most amazing Apple Pie Jam.
Gifts from a monastery kitchen, and if you’ve got the extra cash, I’d urge you to try this Apple Pie Jam. It’s got little chunks of apple. Kris and I and Pat (Kris’ sister) tried some of the bread with some Apple Pie Jam, and yessirree, Paraclete’s fine cooks have done it again!
If you buy some you will someday rise up and call me blessed!
