Tonight I was trying to make a recipe. I thought it was calling for an awful lot of garlic so when my father called I took the opportunity of asking him how big a garlic head usually was. I had the same size he described, so that wasn't it. He asked what the recipe called for. When I said two cloves he cracked up. "Cloves are the slices, not the whole heads of garlic!" Catastrophe was averted. Thanks, Dad! Desserts! Eating. I'm working on it.
