ROYAL PARK PLACE Life Style

forgives my mistakes and mishaps and is a safe place to land, just like the carpet on a Royal Atrium Inn room! Thanks be to God for his boundless grace and mercy—but I’d still say if you have a mezuzah, you may want to keep it away from me! With my affection for each of you, Chaplain Cindy Nyhoff “I will pray for you with deep affection because of the overflowing grace God has given to all of us. Thank God for this gift too wonderful for words!” (based on 2 Corinthians 9:14-15)

At the Table On September 16, we celebrate National Guacamole Day!

While the day itself doesn’t exactly seem to have any particularly poetic origin, National Guacamole Day is a terrific excuse to indulge in the tastiest of dips! However, guacamole itself appears to have its origins among the Aztec people group at some point before the 16th century. Early guacamole recipes typically included only mashed avocado, and it gained popularity due to the excellent health benefits of the avocado. Adding in the tomatoes and onions came later, which was a natural development since those are also native to the Americas. Eventually, the lime juice was added, which originated in the Middle East but spread west with the arrival of Christopher Columbus. The word, guacamole, originally came from the word “āhuacamolli” which translates literally to mean “avocado sauce”. Not only is it a great addition to a savory spread, it’s also good for you! This is because “guac” is made from avocados, which are nutrient-dense and packed with healthy fats that help the body lower bad cholesterol, all of which contribute to having a good ol’ time and living as long as possible.
