Me again....I think you should organize your main youtube front page so your content shows. As it is now, when a person lands on your channel page, they are greeted with a statement that the channel has no content.. Your content is amazing and I think it deserves a better showcasing. Just a friendly bit of advice from a long-time KZbinr married 34 years to a Chinese from Shanghai...cheers!

I'm surprised the Sister's served it, but aside from that everything else were typical Italian Christmas dishes. Thanks for sharing! God bless and Merry belated Christmas to everyone!!

I tried googling for an answer about not eating meat on Christmas Eve. Apparently there was a rule to fast (here meaning no meat) before a religious feast. But I couldn't get a straight answer as to how, why, or when it changed. I am a Jewish senior citizen. I grew up with many dietary laws and religious rules. When my Catholic friends couldn't eat meat on Friday, wore uniforms to school, and prayed in Latin, it all seemed reasonable and expected from a religion. When my Protestant friends told me their religion is about doing nothing just believing, I was confused. I became even more confused as Catholics changed their rules.Catholics seem to have become more like Protestants. Still , I don't understand why the Catholic Church clings to celibate clergy. The only reason I hear from Catholics is that it is a tradition of the Church. Very few American men want to become priests and there have been various problems. With all the changes made by the Church, I wonder why they cling to celibacy. I imagine there is a website that explains Catholic religious law; I just haven't found it. You would think the Church would want Catholics to know the rules and why.

That's a very nice depiction of a true Christmas, away from the maddening crowd and worldly commercialism. A day of solitude with the newborn Christ. I've been in Assissi, and seeing it through your eyes again made me miss the place. Your Son is so behaved and so attuned with nature. Thanks again for a wonderful Christmas experience in Asissi
