If there isn't we should start one. They need Jesus too. We can do the LOTH on the beach tanning and the rosary while surfing. Our apostalate will be to teach surf lessons and make surf boards for Jesus.

[color="#595959"][font="arial, verdana, sans-serif"][size="4"]Sacred Heart of Jesus, Precious Blood of Jesus, Immaculate Heart of Mary. I wont list all the different saints to whom I have some sort of devotion or we'll be here till next century. As far as prayers go... I'm actually really bad at novenas and devotions and whatnot. The one prayer I'm most concerned with fitting into my day apart from the Mass is the Divine Office. I try to include a Rosary, too. All other devotional-type prayers are a little ad-hoc with me.

[color="#595959"][font="arial, verdana, sans-serif"][size="4"]...and why?: [/size][/font][/color]
[color="#595959"][font="arial, verdana, sans-serif"][size="4"]St Therese of Lisieux has been a personal patroness for as long as I can remember, a life-long friend. Her life and works have had a profound impact on me. St Catherine of Siena has been a personal patroness since I entered the order as a Lay Dominican. She chose me, not the other way around... I was initially repulsed by what I heard of her. These two contrasting saints both have much to offer by way of example and guidance to me, and I aspire to different aspects of both... I really believe that type of person our Lord is calling me - my unique and unrepeatable calling - draws much from both of these saints' examples (and little bits from many others) - there is almost a kind of tension between the two lives and characters! Somewhere in the equilibrium... its not me YET, but its who I was created to be. I think. (??)

[color="#595959"][font="arial, verdana, sans-serif"][size="4"]There's this fettucine dish at a local restaurant that I love - a light cream sauce with chicken, roast pumpkin, sundried tomato, bocconcini chee.se and rocket. Superb with a nice sauvignon blanc. Also - the new dark mint Tim Tams are pretty more-ish.

Gherkins are the sweet pickles... dill are okay for certain things, but if eating them alone, the pickle must be sweet!
