Okay. Lots of people are listing some of the most popular posts from their blogs during 2011, so I'll do the same. But My Soul Isn't Filled with Evils! was written shortly after this blog began. It explained what to do with a sorrowing psalm when your personal life has you feeling deliriously happy.
Maybe it was just the clever, nostalgic title, but when this post said that Night Prayer was like Goodnight, Moon for Grownups, everyone went to look at it.
One of my better ventures into apologetics was Talk About Graven Images!
It's a little disconcerting when I get tons of pageviews for posts that have nothing whatsoever to do with the Divine Office. But this minimalist birthday cake that I made for my son must have inspired lots of moms out there to get in touch with their inner Lazy Homemaker.

The big winner in December was about a quote from Isaiah that celebrates overpopulation.
