Will have to try the toasted baguette one. <br /><br />Spent all day with my grandson yesterday. We drew pictures, colored and played cars. He's a big treasure in my life. Keeps me grounded in the simple pleasures and I get to see the world through new eyes.Wandisvillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05182415219879708914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692958826098214952.post-14436215140565373372011-03-08T11:54:02.273-05:002011-03-08T11:54:02.273-05:00California style sunshine and unlimited opportunit...California style sunshine and unlimited opportunity :-)Art Tidescohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16680781189400367930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692958826098214952.post-79082235623763507432011-03-08T09:13:18.798-05:002011-03-08T09:13:18.798-05:00Slightly mashed avocado on toasted french bread.
...Slightly mashed avocado on toasted french bread. <br />Oh so yummy. Living in California avocados were pretty cheap, here in North Carolina, not so much in comparison. Even after 11 years, it still pains me to see a tiny HAAS avocado cost more than $1. So they are treats for me. I will occasionally buy ONE avocado (when it is less than a $1), and wait until the perfect ripeness. I will get a french baguette and cut it with a slight diagonal and toast it ever so slightly. I will even "slum it" on honey wheat sandwich bread if needed, but the french bread is just better. Then I mash a little bit of the avocado, spread it over the toast with the tiniest amount of salt and savor the treat. Ahhh! Talk about a Simple Joy. Now if you will please excuse me... I need to toast up some bread. ;)Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11019562060252268854noreply@blogger.com
