We will be blessing 25 gallons of local honey this evening. Thank you for explaining the colloquial names of the Honey Savior and the three feast of theSavior. There are wild hazelnuts somewhere down here in the San Diego area. You are encouraging me to make more of an effort to forage them for August 16!

I love your ideas! I know, they are gleaned from and inspired by all of our blessed Orthodox traditions, but your joyful receiving of them gives me joy... and the way you participate fully, even creating a modern recipe! -- encourages me to join in the August feasts with more intention.
