I have a confession to make. I don't have a go to guacamole recipe. Not that you NEED a go to but I feel like I should have one? I mean, it's no secret that I love avocados. (See here, here, here and here). But I don't really have a go to guac recipe. It's kinda sad. So calling all good avocado loving people of the universe--please send me your favorite guac recipes! With that being said, I did make guacamole the other day that was pretty good. I definitely wouldn't call it a traditional ... Read More about Corn and Feta Guacamole

Avocado Fries
It's no secret that Avocado is one of my favorite foods in the whole wide world. In my life, it's practically it's own food group. Which means that I've also been crying and so sad at the skyrocketing prices for Avocados. Right now, they're like $2 a piece for a little guy. I can't imagine what the prices are in other parts of the country that aren't California. It makes me so sad. All those Avocado toasts have really put a dent in the worlds supply of 'cados. In any case, when I can manage to ... Read More about Avocado Fries
Pickled Radishes
I like toppings. Lots of toppings. All the toppings, if you will. Sometimes a dish can be elevated with the simple addition of an extra tanginess. I basically put pickled red onions on everything.

So in staying with all things pickled, sometimes I'll pickle other things--it's a good way to keep an ... Read More about Pickled Radishes
Potato Stacks with Avocado Sauce
Happy Monday! Let's celebrate with these Potato Stacks with Avocado Sauce! I know I used the word "celebrate" but what I really meant was "let's try to a big happy bright spot at the end of a Monday and eat our feelings" since they tend to be rather draining and the only thing I can think to combat a rough day is a heaping dose of avo covered spuds. Or at least that's one way. To each their own. Speaking of Monday's, I dunno who decided it was a good day to put leg on a Monday because it ... Read More about Potato Stacks with Avocado Sauce
DIY Cinder Block Bench
Lately, weekends have been full of yard work. Though our backyard is small, it be but mighty in terms of work needed. Last weekend we planted grass seed so we'll see (and hope) that it starts growing so the pups aren't just rolling around in dirt all day and bringing it into the house. I'll be so happy when the floor doesn't have to be swept constantly only to be ruined in a minute by one filthy fur baby. The backyard is an L shape with a nice big corner on one side. Since we moved in, I've ... Read More about DIY Cinder Block Bench
