St. Elizabeth of Portugal was a queen in Portugal whose son is Don Afonso. St. Elizabeth often settled quarrels between her husband and her son. She always extended a helping hand to the poor. Legend has it that her husband didnt like that she was giving food to the poor and one day he caught her sneaking out to give food and demanded to know what was in her apron. She simply replied that it was flowers and when he told her to drop the apron flowers fell from the apron instead of the food she was going to give to the poor.
