Buy Some Avocados Today


Goose taught me a cool trick the other day.
After spending two years in Guadalajara Mexico,
one learns a few things.

All you need is a sharp knife!






I love Avocados!

Avocados provide nearly 20 essential nutrients, including fiber, potassium, Vitamin E, B-vitamins and folic acid. They also act as a "nutrient booster" by enabling the body to absorb more fat-soluble nutrients, such as alpha and beta-carotene and lutein, in foods that are eaten with the fruit. 
I've been reading about brain foods! Put this little star performer on your grocery list! Your brain will love you for it! The best way to eat this little goody ----squeeze a fresh lemon on it and a little salt and pepper. YUM!

we are HUGE avocado lovers in this house. Our summers are full of avocados and blueberries, just not necessarily together! ;)
Anyway, we love to have it with italian dressing on it...
Could you ask Goose how to PICK the best avocado out?
This last time, I picked out a bunch from Costco and I thought that they were a little hard, but would ripen soon...it took them a WEEK!
