On the menu this week... We have some voice feedback that leads us into another discussion of the Holy Family Institute, particularly the Vow of Poverty. I also share with you the experience of renewing our vows Saturday (on our 11th wedding anniversary). And guess what! Char joins us on the show to discuss this topic! Woo hoo!
Tricks, treats, Halloween goodies... Oh, and then there's death and life, the Souls in Purgatory, and an important comment on ABC's FlashForward.
That's right! You could win a Catholic Foodie apron or t-shirt!
On episode 36 I announced a contest in honor of the new Catholic Foodie merchandise. This post is just a simple reminder.
So, how do I win a t-shirt or apron?
Well, here's what I'm looking for: voice feedback!
Simply call 985-635-4974 and leave a message telling me one of two things:
What a full show! Though I was undecided on how to call the episode, I was absolutely certain of what the episode was about: tailgating... LSU-style!
We also talk about new SQPN podcasters, lots of food... tailgating food and beer! What we really want to talk about is how to take your usual tailgating fare and "kick it up a notch!"
I also announce a new contest... you could win a new Catholic Foodie t-shirt or apron!
We have feedback and hamburgers, lots of hamburgers (and we ain't talkin' McDonald's, baby!).
On the menu today: Negative feedback (that is so good!), the announcement of the winners of the jambalaya throwdown, and an interview with Marcelle Bienvenu. I even throw in a recipe. Goodness! Things are cookin' over here at the Catholic Foodie, where food meets faith!
Links mentioned in the show:
Marcelle Bienvenu's Cooking Creole
OK. Here's the deal. I've got stuff to give away.
It's a jambalaya throwdown. Are you game?
What do I have for you?
Well, how about I send you a jambalaya kit from Zatarain's? In it you will find 2 boxes of Zatarain's Jambalaya Mix, an apron, chef's hat, and wooden spoon. Did I mention this is free?
So, what do you have to do?
I admit it.
I've never used Zatarain's Jambalaya Mix.
Now, it's not that I have anything against Zatarain's. I just like to make it up myself. Not to mention the fact that boxed and canned foods tend to have all kinds of nasty ingredients. Like MSG. And enough sodium to preserve an Egyptian mummy for another couple of thousand years.
Egypt? That's right, Egypt, ancient Egypt. So, what does ancient Egypt have to do with us today? We'll consult Jim Beckman's "God Help Me" to find an answer. We talk more on prayer, and I announce a new contest.

"Like food? Want to learn more about your faith? Jeff is personable, easy to listen to, and very knowledgeable about both subjects." - Mike
"Jeff does a fantastic job blending a love of food with a passion for his faith. I always look forward to a new episode - Keep up the good work!" - Lisa
"I'm not a cook, though I like to eat. I do love learning about my Catholic faith, though. I didn't expect to become a big fan of the Catholic Foodie as I have; Jeff makes me want to try my hand at some of the cooking and recipes. It's not JUST about food, though, and his perspective on faith is valuable catechesis, and I appreciate every show." - Sarah
"The Catholic Foodie is an excellent show about food and our Catholic Faith." - Anonymous
"Jeff's podcast is very enjoyable. He does a great job of relating food to faith and vice versa. I especially love the episodes about coffee! Keep up the good work!" - JoAnna
"It's great to hear a podcast that's relaxing and low-key. Love the soft jazz music you use." - Fr. Jim
"Though he doesn't live in New Orleans proper, Jeff Young's love of food, cooking and God is influenced by this Catholic city in which delicious meals abound! If you are interested in how the Church's past and present history intersects with food, this is the podcast for you. Young's talents as an educator shine through; he explains concepts in a lively way that never sounds preachy." - Soyviz
"More exciting than Sunday sports channels, more invigorating than a Swedish massage, and more inspiring than a full set of 1955 Funk and Wagnell Encyclopedias… or the hardcover edition Code of Canon Law! Grab a cup of java, or maybe a good glass of vino, and come on down and spend some time with the Catholic Foodie… Where food meets faith!" - Bro. Jer
