Remember a couple years back when this woman discovered the Virgin Mary in her piece of toast and offered it for auction on Ebay? Well look here! Now you can have your own holy toast every morning. I saw this thing first on Anita's blog, then I found it online for sale. I don't know if you'll make much money on Ebay with your slices of toast, and I'm not even sure I'd be able to bite into one of them (seeing as how it's the Blessed Mother), but there you are. Do with the information what you will.

Hmm...I was not raised a Catholic, but when
I saw a "Pope" Garden Gnome, I did NOT find it "funny". My mother in law, who's 85 and helped us out ALOT, would NOT find
that Holy Toast template funny, either!!
Think some people are out to make a buck
any way they can think of????

Hi!
It's late at night. I've been surfing the blogs...waiting for my sixteen year old to arrive home...he's here...finally. But, I found your post right before he put the key into the lock. So, is this some Southern thing? I scanned Anita's blog for a quick hint but didn't see if she, too, was fighting the heat and humidity...and the everlasting strangeness of "the South".
Unlike the other poster, I do find this sort of thing totally amusing. Maybe that's because I am Catholic living among the Baptists of South Carolina and watching the Neo-Nazi's parade up our Main Street every year and watching weekly television news about troops headed to war while knowing our educational system is #49 in the country but we lead in infant mortality...Life is strange...the "South" isn't like anyplace else on Earth...or...maybe it's because my family and I would actually use this sort of toaster thing...just for the fun of it.
Like your pork shoulder...butt...loin...whatever post. Hilarious! Really enjoyed it! Where, exactly can we buy the Virgina Toast Template?

Susan (whom posted after me)-
I knew right after I hit the button I'd
probably come across as "prim" and harsh,
that wasn't me REAL intent. I live right
here, in the "Bible Belt" (Okla, TX, Ks, etc.), was brought up a Baptist, my husb. and his family are all Catholic from up north (Dubuque, IA, 90% Catholic)
Yea, the "Nazi/Aryan" group tried to parade
in downtown Tulsa 1-2 yrs ago and either the city denied 'em a permit or they did and hardly any "public" showed up. People
here are fairly tolerant of everyone, EXCEPT child predators. When one is arrested, they literally show up @ the local courthouse with nooses. People wear
cowboy hats, cowboy boots and some "chew"
(tobacco). UGH- I can't stand that!!
When I think about it, the "Pope" Garden Gnome isn't that bad-maybe "he" is watching over peoples gardens-?
What I think is hilarious is that Okla is
celebrating our 100th yr of statehood this
Nov. There are signs on the highways, info everywhere, tshirts printed up. Oh, it's a BIG DEAL, here. I chuckle "100 yrs-
that's not any "history" at all, compared to some of the states back east, and even
less compared to UK, Germany, etc." I have a good friend coming next wk from UK
to visit- I can just see her going home and saying "I was THERE-they're 100 yrs old!!!!" Not likely.
I'd like to see Charleston someday, and Getttysburg. I've been to Chickamauga, very "incredible" the sense of history that falls over you in such places-
