Today, we celebrate the Gaelic Cross-Quarter Feast of Lughnasadh, which, in ancient times, marked the beginning of harvest season. We’re going to celebrate with a traditional feast consisting of Corned Beef (Round Cut) and Cabbage with some lower carb vegetables (Squash, Turnips, Brussels Sprouts, etc.) to keep closer to our Keto diet.
As in past posts about Celtic celebrations, we issue the disclaimer that we are not bound by Wiccan or other Heathen religious traditions since we are Christians and practice the only true religion in our daily lives. We only celebrate their traditions since our ancestors were mostly Gaelic and Celtic. The feasting is awesome.
The weather today here in Wickenburg is much the same as yesterday, with thunderstorms over the mountains east and north of here, but still dry here. We have a 20% chance for showers before 8 PM. We could use a little gentle rain.
OK – time to go and slice the entrĂ©e for the feast. Enjoy your Sunday — the Lord’s Day!
Update: we’re getting some of that rain now. Big drops far apart but covering the ground and soaking in.
