Zimm & I first learned of his existence in Venice. Already then I knew that he was "my" saint. Even though he is the patron of midwives, his attribute is a long-handled spatula, which has always endeared him to me. Take note, ladies and proselytizers: the way to my heart is through a spatula.
(Note: the juxtaposition of spatula and saint is not meant to disparage either the holy man or the utensil.)
Thanks to Davis for the tip. More substantive blog post to follow.
