So, here I am in Montreal visiting my sister. Having a grand ‘ole time. We decided to go pick up some groceries to make her homemade veggie burgers (absolutely fantastic I must say!) We went to a her little local grocery store called the Metro, got some food and right next to the bulk food stuff and were a couple of shelves with nuts, candies and chocolates packaged up in little plastic containers. There was one that caught our attention, Laura had always thought the contents were little white chocolate disks, for baking or making chocolates, but it turns out that they were priests hosts. Never seen little unleavened priest hosts for sale in the grocery store...

What do you do with them… invite the clergy over to your house to bless your own private stash? I have to admit, we were both so thoroughly confused!

Handy when the sacristy is bare and the liturgical supply store is closed!
