A Carnival Carnival

This week's Catholic Carnival actually features as its theme the Mardi Gras parades-- lots of fun, so check it out!

I met a new friend there, whom I've placed in the sidebar, Broken Alabaster. We are reminded that, in order to encounter Christ, we must be broken open and poured out, just as Christ was on the Cross.

I'm especially appreciative of the blogroll I found there. We have many links in common :)
