Sunday morning I drove from Tiffy’s house to Travalon’s
house in time to go to 10:45 Mass at St. Anthony on the Lake with him. Then we
went out to lunch with his mother before hitting Serbian Fest. This was at St.
Sava Serbian Orthodox Cathedral, a truly beautiful church that smells wonderful
too, because of all the incense. It was filled with icons and mosaics of
various saints, but I can’t read their alphabet very well – the only one I
could make out was Saint Michael the Archangel. The festival itself was outside
and in the school gym. There were at least three bands performing at the same
time on different stages; one band had men playing all sorts of instruments,
including things that looked like tiny mandolins. People were grilling lamb and
pork, which smelled wonderful, and there were all sorts of delicious dishes and
desserts made with phyllo dough. There was a fair midway complete with rides
and carnival games, and Travalon won me a little pig by squirting water at a
target. The pig looks like it is dancing a la John Travolta, so I am calling it
Disco Pig while I think of a better appellation. I took a photo of Disco Pig
and will try to post it soon.
