The road to the Kingdom is not so pleasant, and comfortable, and easy, and flowery, as many dream. It is not a bright sunny avenue of palms. It is not paved with triumph, though it is to end in victory. The termination is glory, honor, and immortality; but on the way, there is the thorn in the flesh, the sackcloth, and the cross. Recompense later; but labor here! Rest later; but weariness here! Joy and security later; but here endurance and watchfulness – the race, the battle, the burden, the stumbling block, and oftentimes the heavy heart.

INSTRUCTIONS

Saute the onions and garlic in the olive oil over medium heat until soft.
Add the chipotles, adobo sauce, tomato sauce and the bouillon disolved in
the 1/2 cup of hot water.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for
about 30 minutes, or until you have a thick sauce.
Allow the sauce to cool somewhat, then puree in a blender until smooth.
If I want a sweeter taste, I will add about 1/4 cup honey to the mixture
while still in the blender and mix.  Do the lick the spoon test to see if
it is sweet enough for whatever you will be using the sauce on.  You can
always add more honey, but you can't take it out.
