Book Celebrating with St  Joseph Altars

Download or read book Celebrating with St Joseph Altars written by Sandra Scalise Juneau and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2021-03-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year on March 19, Roman Catholic churches and households in and around New Orleans celebrate St. Joseph’s Day. As centerpieces of these celebrations, the elaborate tiered displays of foods, prayers, and offerings known as St. Joseph Altars represent a centuries-old tradition established in south Louisiana by immigrants from Sicily. In Celebrating with St. Joseph Altars, Sandra Scalise Juneau expertly documents the stories, recipes, and religious symbolism of this rich tradition passed down through multiple generations. While the altars have adapted over time to local ingredients and tastes, most of the customary dishes still follow cooking and baking methods that remain relatively unchanged from over a century ago. Juneau traces the history and symbols associated with the St. Joseph Altar from its Sicilian origins to its establishment among Louisiana’s celebrations, then its later embrace by multicultural communities across the United States. She also provides a guide for preparing an altar, complete with recommended timelines and suggestions for physical setup. She offers over sixty carefully selected recipes centered on delectable breads, fish, pasta, and spring vegetables. Pastries receive special attention, with detailed instructions for carving the intricate fig cake designs known as cuccidati. Celebrating with St. Joseph Altars chronicles a cultural tradition that continues to draw families and communities together in a generous spirit of hospitality.

Book excerpt: Winner of a 2020 Catholic Press Association book award (first place, backlist beauty). Do you ever feel caught in an endless cycle of working harder and longer to get more while enjoying life less? The Stewart family did—and they decided to make a radical change. Popular Catholic blogger and podcaster Haley Stewart explains how a year-long internship on a sustainable farm changed her family’s life for the better, allowing them to live gospel values more intentionally. When Haley Stewart married her bee-keeping sweetheart, Daniel, they dreamed of a life centered on home and family. But as the children arrived and Daniel was forced to work longer hours at a job he liked less and less, they dared to break free from the unending cycle of getting more yet feeling unfufilled. They sold their Florida home and retreated to Texas to live on a farm with a compost toilet and 650 square feet of space for a family of five. Surprisingly, they found that they had never been happier. In The Grace of Enough, Stewart shares essential elements of intentional Christian living that her family discovered during that extraordinary year on the farm and that they continue to practice today. You, too, will be inspired to: live simply offer hospitality revive food culture and the family table reconnect with the land nurture community prioritize beauty develop a sense of wonder be intentional about technology seek authentic intimacy center life around home, family, and relationships Drawing from Pope Francis’s encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si’, Stewart identifies elements of Catholic social teaching that will enhance your life and create a ripple effect of grace to help you overcome the effects of today’s “throwaway” culture and experience a deeper satisfaction and stronger faith.

Download or read book From a Rectory Kitchen written by Franca Bosio Bertoli and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When serving as the bishop of the Diocese of Bridgeport, I was delighted whenever I received an invitation to dine with the priests at St. Joseph's parish in Danbury. For I knew what awaited me: a splendid meal, lovingly prepared by a gifted cook, Franca. The food was always superb, and I felt transported back to Italy each time. Thus, I was very happy indeed to learn of her collaboration with Father Matthew Mauriello and their soon-to-be-published cookbook." His Eminence, Edward Cardinal Egan Archbishop Emeritus of New York "Several times each year, Fr. Matt invited a group of priests for a fraternal gathering and a home-cooked Italian meal. It was always a treat! Everything was prepared from scratch by him; from the large platters of antipasto to the manicotti or tortellini, then a main course, followed by Tiramisù or freshly-made ice cream. There was even home-made Limoncello. The excellent meal was accompanied by warm conversation and conviviality among the brother priests. It seemed that Fr. Matt's joy in serving as a priest was the secret ingredient in his cooking. Those were very memorable gatherings." A priest of the Diocese of Bridgeport About the authors: This cookbook is the product of nearly twenty years of friendship between Franca Bosio Bertoli and Fr. Matthew Mauriello. In 1992, Fr. Matt began his parish priest assignment at St. Joseph Church in Danbury, CT where Franca was the Rectory cook. They hit it off, exchanging cooking tips and recipes. Franca was born in the Province of Cremona, in northern Italy and Fr. Matt's relatives came from the Province of Avellino in southern Italy. They hope that this cookbook, a treasury of recipes and a product of love and friendship, will bring others as much joy as their mutual love of cooking has brought to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Included here alongside lively personal commentary are historical and cultural facts about Italian American immigration patterns, religious institutions and festivals such as St. Joseph’s Day, and over one hundred recipes from “the old country.” This collectable volume will appeal as much to cultural historians as to those seeking their Italian grandmother’s fava bruschetta instructions.

Wilson also includes a glossary and an illustrated how-to for making your own mud oven to bake authentic Italian bread. The down-to-earth voices collected in Louisiana’s Italians, Food, and Folkways make this an interesting blend of personal and public history and a delicious celebration of the Italian’s love of God, food, and family.

Book From Steel to Slots

    Book Details:
  • Author : Chloe E. Taft
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 2016-04-06
  • ISBN : 0674970241
  • Pages : 336 pages

Download or read book From Steel to Slots written by Chloe E. Taft and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-06 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, was once synonymous with steel. But after the factories closed, the city bet its future on a new industry: casino gambling. On the site of the former Bethlehem Steel plant, thousands of flashing slot machines and digital bells replaced the fires in the blast furnaces and the shift change whistles of the industrial workplace. From Steel to Slots tells the story of a city struggling to make sense of the ways in which local jobs, landscapes, and identities are transformed by global capitalism. Postindustrial redevelopment often makes a clean break with a city’s rusted past. In Bethlehem, where the new casino is industrial-themed, the city’s heritage continues to dominate the built environment and infuse everyday experiences. Through the voices of steelworkers, casino dealers, preservationists, immigrants, and executives, Chloe Taft examines the ongoing legacies of corporate presence and urban development in a small city—and their uneven effects. Today, multinational casino corporations increasingly act as urban planners, promising jobs and new tax revenues to ailing communities. Yet in an industry premised on risk and capital liquidity, short-term gains do not necessarily mean long-term commitments to local needs. While residents often have few cards to play in the face of global capital and private development, Taft argues that the shape economic progress takes is not inevitable, nor must it always look forward. Memories of corporations’ accountability to communities persist, and citizens see alternatives for more equitable futures in the layered landscapes all around them.

Book Arab American Faces and Voices

Download or read book Arab American Faces and Voices written by Elizabeth Boosahda and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Arab Americans seek to claim their communal identity and rightful place in American society at a time of heightened tension between the United States and the Middle East, an understanding look back at more than one hundred years of the Arab-American community is especially timely. In this book, Elizabeth Boosahda, a third-generation Arab American, draws on over two hundred personal interviews, as well as photographs and historical documents that are contemporaneous with the first generation of Arab Americans (Syrians, Lebanese, Palestinians), both Christians and Muslims, who immigrated to the Americas between 1880 and 1915, and their descendants. Boosahda focuses on the Arab-American community in Worcester, Massachusetts, a major northeastern center for Arab immigration, and Worcester's links to and similarities with Arab-American communities throughout North and South America. Using the voices of Arab immigrants and their families, she explores their entire experience, from emigration at the turn of the twentieth century to the present-day lives of their descendants. This rich documentation sheds light on many aspects of Arab-American life, including the Arab entrepreneurial motivation and success, family life, education, religious and community organizations, and the role of women in initiating immigration and the economic success they achieved.

  • ISBN : 1574416189
  • Pages : 407 pages

Download or read book Tales of Texas Cooking written by Frances Brannen Vick and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Renaissance woman and Pepper Lady Jean Andrews, although food is eaten as a response to hunger, it is much more than filling one's stomach. It also provides emotional fulfillment. This is borne out by the joy many of us feel as a family when we get in the kitchen and cook together and then share in our labors at the dinner table. Food is comfort, yet it is also political and contested because we often are what we eat--meaning what is available and familiar and allowed. Texas is fortunate in having a bountiful supply of ethnic groups influencing its foodways, and Texas food is the perfect metaphor for the blending of diverse cultures and native resources. Food is a symbol of our success and our communion, and whenever possible, Texans tend to do food in a big way. This latest publication from the Texas Folklore Society contains stories and more than 120 recipes, from long ago and just yesterday, organized by the 10 vegetation regions of the state. Herein you'll find Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson’s Family Cake, memories of beef jerky and sassafras tea from John Erickson of Hank the Cowdog fame, Sam Houston's barbecue sauce, and stories and recipes from Roy Bedichek, Bob Compton, J. Frank Dobie, Bob Flynn, Jean Flynn, Leon Hale, Elmer Kelton, Gary Lavergne, James Ward Lee, Jane Monday, Joyce Roach, Ellen Temple, Walter Prescott Webb, and Jane Roberts Wood. There is something for the cook as well as for the Texan with a raft of takeaway menus on their refrigerator.
