St. Padre Pio's feast day is coming again in a few weeks, so I thought I'd share the simple eats we enjoyed last year in case you and yours would like some inspiration for living the liturgical year in your domestic home.
Treat #2 was gluten-free, casein free pizza, which reminded us that Padre Pio is from Italy.
Alongside that, because we have both vegetarians and meat eater in the house, there were Italian sausages of both kinds.
Sometimes the kids like dessert with the meal - and this was the case on St. Padre Pio's day when gluten-free donuts remind us to "pray, hope, and 'donut' worry."

The table was simply decorated with a peg doll and two books. We used the St. padre Pio page in the frist of these, Boy Saints for Little Ones, for me to draw quick saint trivia question ideas from.
It was a simple celebration, easy to throw together and enjoyed by all!
