Maybe St. Joseph Should Be Your Real Estate Agent

Want to sell your house? Bury a statue of St. Joseph in your yard. Really. People have been doing it for ages. You can even buy a Saint Joseph Real Estate kit!

March 19 is St. Joseph's feast day. It is customary to make zeppole. Or, you can buy them at your local Italian bakery instead!

One online supply store has the following just below their kit:

This is not to be used superstitiously, but as an act of faith through the intercession of St. Joseph.

Yeah, okay

Being from an Italian dad and a french Canadian mother, I've seen alot at weddings. I'll agree I've seen some degrading things. I remember at my cousins wedding (french side), the men danced with the bride and pinned money to her dress but also the women danced with the groom and pinned money to his tux. Luckily my dad didn't want that at my wedding.

I have to admit the whole garter dealie doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me either. Neither does the table centrepiece giveaway... How many table-sized colour-coded custom vases can you possibly use?

“A philosopher once wrote you need three things to have a good life. One, a meaningful relationship, two, a decent job of work, and three, to make a difference. And it was always that third one that stressed me, to make a difference. And I realise that I do. Every day, we all do. It’s how we interact, with our fellow man.”
