What Are Your Plans For October 1?

A statue of St. Therese in the pretty rose garden of the National Shrine of the Little Flower, Royal Oak MI. I took this photo on a clear blue October 1, 2010. The entire church and hallways were filled with roses!

October 1, the feast of St. Therese, is always a special day around my house. I always try to do something to show my love for the Little Flower on that day each year.  Usually I pick up a box of chocolate eclairs (her favorite treat) for the family! It's too bad my favorite bakery is closed on Mondays. Maybe this year I'll try my hand at making my own. I have a recipe for them and it looks simple...I hope!

I'm looking forward to chatting with Brian Patrick on the The Son Rise Morning Show with Brian Patrick this Monday morning, the feast of St. Therese! Tune in at 7:15 a.m. E.S.T. We'll be talking about—who else?—our lovely friend in Heaven, St. Therese! After that will be Holy Mass at the beautiful National Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, MI to have another chat, this time with the Little Flower herself. I just love October 1! ♥♥♥
