Guacamole

Happy Cinco de Mayo my friends!   You’ll have to forgive me for the rather short post today, but I couldn’t let the day pass us by without some sort of recognition to our Mexican friends who are celebrating a national holiday today either in person (or in spirit). 

And what better than with a delicious bowl of Guacamole.  So fresh. So tasty.  And best of all… So Simple!  If you’ve never made your own Guacamole before, trust me, once you try this, you’ll never buy the store bought variety again.  Enjoy.
