A few weeks ago I came across the most fabulous book, Feast! by Daniel and Haley Stewart, and I thought that this would be a great time to share it with you all since we are in the midst of Holy Week. Feast! is such a unique and much-needed book for families who’d like to celebrate the Liturgical Christian year in their homes— and more precisely on their kitchen tables.
While most feast days or holiday celebrations bring to mind things like cakes and cookies (and buns! Oh, the buns! Hot Cross, St. Lucia….I digress 😉 ) the Stewarts have gone a step beyond and created a wonderfully thought out book that uses hearty and healthy meals to celebrate the special days that fall in the liturgical calendar.
Getting to know Haley through her wonderful blog Carrots for Michaelmas, I’ve come to appreciate how the Stewarts don’t just celebrate the seasons with vegetables, soups, and meat dishes, they also grow a good deal of their own produce and involve their young children in the process. Very inspiring indeed, especially since planting season is fast approaching for many of us!
