St. Lucy…

… I’m wondering how gruesome I should get with the class project at my son’s public school. This week they are learning how different cultures celebrate Christmas. Surprisingly, they’ve also included St. Nicholas Day and Las Posadas. I was volunteered to organize the St. Lucy’s Day craft. Here is what they recommend… a little bland for my taste. I’m thinking cakes that look like eyeballs, lots of candles and fire, and a nice heart warming story about martyrdom and preserving virginity.

That’s what happens when you invite a papist to the party.
