In last week's edition of Canterbury, we gathered at the house to observe one of the Canonical Hours: Compline. I was on board for cooking this week, but luckily - since there was so much food leftover from the Skinner Luncheon - there wasn't much cooking to be done on my part; just a quick trip down to Market Street Market for salad garnishments. When I got back, after taking the No.7 downtown, I found a bunch of Canterburians outside, diligently and lovingly working on our vegetable garden. Our hope is to be able to use some of the produce from the patch to feed Canterbury. There's even been talk about getting a rain-barrel to collect water for the summertime!
After a bit of evening prayer, we ate and then went straight into Compline. Lots of praying and bible-ing, but afterwards I think we all felt very relaxed and ready to face whatever deadlines we still had for the evening.
