Franciscan Footprints

So, since the Mustard Greens are huge I decided that today was the day to harvest and cook the greens. The harvesting was the easy part. Novice is a good description of my culinary skills also.(Mom always made it look so easy!) I started my adventure in the kitchen by burning the bacon-luckily the fire alarm was not set off. I tried again with the bacon and the second time is the charm. (Sister Magdalen rescued me by finishing to clean the greens so that I could just chop them and add them to the pot) Thank you Sister Magdalen!

I’m amazed at how long it takes to cook-and also the effort required. I had unrealistic expectations I guess. Plus last time I cooked greens I forgot all the headache after I tasted them. Maybe next time I’ll remember. Who knows. Well, that was my adventure in the kitchen today. Now I’m off to make my Holy Hour.(just me, Jesus, and the Rule- I can’t wait!)

God Bless.
