On Friday, June 7, Fr. Leo Patalinghug of\xa0GraceBeforeMeals.com\xa0joined us as a guest on the\xa0Around The Table Food Show.
\nFr. Leo is no stranger to any of us. A priest of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, Fr. Leo studied in Rome at the same time as Msgr. Christopher Nalty. They were classmates. Fr. Leo also did a fundraiser for\xa0Catholic Community Radio\xa0in Baton Rouge a couple of years ago. And I have been a fan, a follower, and a fellow foodie of Fr. Leo, promoting basically the same message as Grace Before Meals (with my own cooking style, of course) since October of 2008.
\nListen to our conversation to get a sneak peek behind the scenes of Fr. Leo's famous "Throwdown" with Bobby Flay in 2009. Fr. Leo and Msgr. Nalty shared lots of great stories about that... and about their time together in Rome. Fr. Leo also shared with us the beginnings of the\xa0Grace Before Meals movement.
\nAnd for a special treat, Fr. Leo tells us about his upcoming (and\xa0third!) book. Find out about it here!
