Turns out a whole clove of garlic is not equal to a half clove of garlic. When you add a whole clove instead of half a clove, your recipe turns out a bit garlicky.
Other than that, the guacamole was delish.
And the tomalito. :)
Theology on Tap was good tonight. Actually, it was pretty great. It was one of those things that just reinforces what you already knew, but in a different way, making it seem like new information. It was about vocation as a call to holiness, regardless of which Vocation you've been gifted with. I already knew one of the presenters (they are a married couple; I know the wife). It was really amazing to see how married people can be so holy and devoted to each other whilst being in constant pursuit of growing in holiness for the sake of each other, as part of their married vocation. I loved seeing that - it's not seen nearly often enough in today's world. I heard the most beautiful thing tonight; it was quoted from a letter that one of the speakers received from a Franciscan TOR sister. She said to pray each night whilst holding a crucifix. You can either pray holding both of Jesus' hands, praying to be totally His, or holding one of His hands, praying for Him to send you someone worthy enough to hold His other hand with you. I think it's beautiful. :)
Well, I don't have much else to say, other than today is the feast of Bl. Jane of Aza, St. Dominic's mother, which is a cause for rejoicing. Go grab yourself an orange-flavored Creamsicle. Not because it has anything to do with Bl. Jane or St. Dominic, but because they are delicious.
Caritas et veritas.
