The American Sons of Columbus and American Daughters of Columbus (2615 Independence Blvd.) combined forces to host their Second Annual Feast of St. Joseph table on Saturday, Feb. 28 and March 1. While many Catholic parishes celebrate this Feast Day on March 19, this cultural heritage club has selected the first Sunday in March for their celebration to allow members to later participate in celebrations at other parishes.
In addition to the traditional tiered table laden with Italian and Sicilian specialties— cookies, cakes, bread, seafood, vegetables and more—- special table decorations were crafted by one member to show which city traditional dishes originated from. During the table viewing on Saturday, cookies and cannoli were offered for sale, while other members began making the sauce for Sunday’s dinner featuring Pasta Milanese or spaghetti with traditional red sauce.
