I rarely post on the blog anymore, but I was feeling nostalgic for Friday Favorites. I posted in on Instagram, but I’m including all the links here. Here are this week’s faves. Enjoy!

This Week’s Fave Drink

Catholic Coffee Heavenly Roasts

I’m not a coffee drinker, but Brian is, so I purchased some Catholic Coffee Heavenly Roasts for him. He likes dark roast so he tried St. Michael the Archangel and St. Padre Pio. He loved it!  The saint inspired names and packaging is lovely and would be a great Christmas gift for a coffee lover.

And although, I don’t drink coffee, I bought the beautiful matching prayer cards. 🙂

This Week’s Fave Pumpkin Flavored Food

Lightly Spiced Pumpkin Spread from Trader Joe’s

I love Trader Joe’s and always find interesting food there. I’m not a huge pumpkin fan, but I select a few things every fall to get into the seasonal spirit. I tried their Pumpkin Spread and it was very tasty. It is advertised as a compliment to a savory dish. I used it on my wheat toast and it is was okay, but then I added a slice of turkey breast to it, and it was delicious. And the jar is so cute you could pair it with a homemade (or bakery bought) loaf of bread as a hostess gift.

This Week’s Fave Flower

Marigolds

I also stopped at Trader Joe’s today to pick a couple bouquets of marigolds for the feast of All Souls Day. A few years back, we started the family tradition of visiting our local cemetery to pray for the people buried there.

I gave each of the us a small bouquet of marigolds.

Then we’d each choose people to pray for – from soldiers, religious, teens, young children, to ordinary men and women. Some of the kids kept the prayers pretty simple – others brought a book with prayers for the dead.

You can read more about this and how we also build a Catholic version of the ofrenda, which also included marigolds, in my post: How We Celebrate Dia de los Muertos, All Saints’ Day, and All Souls’ Day as a Catholic Family.

This Week’s Fave Catholic Ministry Anniversary

 Feast Day Boxes 3rd Anniversary

We are big fans of the Feast Day Boxes monthly subscription program. Their ministry has really helped us to incorporate liturgical living into our everyday lives. From food to religious items, each box takes us on a journey to another part of the world and opens our eyes to new-to-us Catholic customs. (You can see the reel of items we received in our boxes over the years on my Instagram feed.) Feast Day Boxes celebrated their third anniversary this month and we send them big congrats and thanks!

Those are my favorites of the week! What have you been enjoying?

Have a great weekend!
