Happy Feast of St. Willibrord, Old Catholics!!

[Polycarp1]

Today is the feast of St. Willibrord of Utrecht, the founder of the Primatial see of the Old Catholics, and the Apostle to the Frisians.

It happens to be important to me because my surname is vaguely similar to Willibrord's name, and it's also my birthday (as the little balloon thing will tell you today, at least).

So this is a very special feast for our Old Catholic members, and let us Anglicans wish them a joyous feast! :)

As long as you let me skip the lutefisk (a Scandanavian smelly fish recipe).

Never had either one, but looks like the wet bottom might be more interesting.

While I love Pennsylvania Dutch cooking, they are not Dutch. They are German. The German word for "German" is Deutsch, which the other Pennsylvania settlers probably couldn't pronounce. That's how the Pennsylvania Germans became the Pennsylvania Dutch.

Thanks be to God for Wilibrord.
