Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival

Sunday Snippets is brought to you each week by RAnn at This, That and the Other Thing.

This was quite a busy blogging week. Aside from our usual music (Polovtsian Dances)  art  (Ballet Class) and poetry (Children Learn What They Live), we prayed for London, watched a short film about a couple whose child has a disability (This is Faith) ,  and shared a recipe for making yogurt in the crockpot.

We also talked about what lessons God might be asking us to learn in this shaky economy (Gandhian Economics) and the War on Antidepressants.

This week's theme was the hot weather we've been having.  Music Monday featured Lovin' Spoonful's Summer in the City.  Art and Beauty Tuesday featured Summer at the Taco Bell, Rt. 22, Hillside, NJ by Valeri Larko.  Poetry Wednesday featured one of my own poems, This Time.

I highlighted a budget food blog, Budget Bytes and the newly restored Cyclorama in Gettysburg.

Finally, I highlighted a very important article by Mark Shea on Catholic Social Justice and the Economy.

This week I talked about Aaron Copeland's Fanfare for the Common Man--very July and very American.  We looked at Jeff Ward's painting, Eagle-Owl, a beautiful brown and black eagle done in a painterly style.  For Poetry Wednesday we looked at Edward Lear's The Owl and the Pussycat.

I talked about weeds in light of last week's Gospel reading, put up some more pictures of Pen Mar Park, and reviewed Stephen Fry's documentary on manic depression.

Finally, I wrote a piece on expression of doubt in religious education.

This week we really did wind up Vivaldi and we talked about the colorful Girl with Two Caged Doves by John Frederick Louis.  Our poem was Let it Go by e.e. cummings.  I also posted about the media feeding frenzy surrounding Casey Anthony and some beautiful local scenery in nearby Maryland.

This week was an exciting week at the Well. We listened to Lincoln Portrait by American composer Aaron Copeland, looked at a historic miniature that may be the first portrait of Lincoln ever painted, Read A Dream Deferred by Langston Hughes and prayed Psalm 51.

Have a great week, everyone!

We finally reach the end of Vivaldi's Gloria!  Take a listen to this week's Music Monday and enjoy. Art and Beauty Tuesday was Lego street art--creative and unusual.  Poetry Wednesday was Roses by George Elliott.

This week I also talked about PTSD awareness, finding your prayer style and the radical love of the Sacred Heart.

Sorry we missed last week's Sunday Snippets. We were attending our son's wedding out of town.

We are finally heading to the end of Vivaldi's Gloria!  Next week is our final week!

Last week's Art and Beauty Tuesday featured John Singer Sargent's Spirto Santo Saatera, a beautiful water color. This week we featured John Everett Millais' Wedding Cards.  Last week's poetry was Zeynep Hatun's I am a Fountain, a beautiful poem reaching out to God.  This week was a short poem by Amy Lowell, To a Husband.

I also featured Prayer for Control of the Tongue and a beautiful YouTube video for Corpus Christi.

This week we continued our listen to Vivaldi's Gloria--this time to Domine Deus--a beautiful alto solo.  We also continued our Novena to the Holy Spirit.

For Art and Beauty Tuesday, we looked at Morkenkaffen (Morning Coffee) by Harald Slott Moller.

Today I posted Be Not Afraid--Listen to God's Voice, with a quote from Pope John Paul II and a song from Celtic Woman as well as a picture of the cacti on my hill.

This week we continued our Vivaldi Gloria.  Our art and poetry reflected a Memorial Day theme with A Time for Honoring by Sgt. Pete Damon and a haiku by Asei.

This week I began the Novena to the Holy Spirit, which is a series of YouTube Videos with the novena prayers.

I also talked about the bird revolution that seems to be taking place outside my front door.

Have a beautiful week!
