I guess I should make cobbler?

It's my turn to cook tomorrow. Two 3rd century brothers have been deemed worthy of our mealtime attention:

Crispin and Crispian.

Born into a wealthy family, they fled Rome during a persecution of Christians, and found themselves making shoes for the poor in the Soissons region of Gaul. Unfortunately they were beheaded, but they remain the patron saints of cobblers, shoemakers, leatherworkers, etc.

Not sure what we'll be eating yet, but I do hope to put the finishing touches on our plans for shoes and/or clothes for Melissa and Heather's displaced hurricane kids.
