Monday the 8th: Saints of the week and more eggs

 *Eggs today are both decorated with pieces of wheat, the real egg is blown out and colored and then pieces of wheat are pasted to the surface.

*There are some saints again this week! Today is the Solemnity of the Annunciation, moved from March 25 (Holy Week) to today, outside the octave, to make sure it gets celebrated. This is the day Mary said yes to the Angel Gabriel to bear Jesus.

*April 11 is St. Stanislaus, a Polish bishop. He died in 1079 and is considered the first native Polish canonized saint.
