We received another blessing from a friend who loves our pickled mango. We always give them every harvest. Now it is our turn to receive their first harvest of avocado from their own tree. There were 5 avocados but the 2 have already vanished to the tummy of my wife.

@Alexandoy I think that you can eat them anyway. Although I don´t know that type of avocado

@marguicha this avocado give to us is of great quality. With the avocado having roots, only about half can be eaten.

It is the season of avocado here but I am choosy in buying because sometimes the ripe avocado has roots already.

Oh, how did that happen that the price is high when they are locally produced?

@JudyEv that was the same in London. I have noticed that their local apples are more expensive than the imported ones.

@Alexandoy I guess they get a good price for them if they send them away so if the locals want them they have to pay market price.

I love avocados and could eat them all day long! In fact, I had one earlier in the week. I wish I would have bought more when I was at the market yesterday, but I forgot. I hope you enjoy one of those avocados before your wife ends up eating them all.

You seem to have guessed what happened. There were 5 avocadoes then there were 3 and then there was 1 only 1 was left for me.

I used to like to buy avocadoes at the store but if they would not open I stopped doing it. I used to love to make dip out of them, but, stopped that a long time ago.

@Hannihar this reminds me that I have a big pack of potato chips for 2 weeks now, it is unopened yet.

Yes, that is what I mean. That is ok. I do not buy them anymore. I do not make the dip or eat potato chips anymore.

It is creamy in taste but not sweet so you need to add sugar.

That is true. When we receive something from the neighbor, we feel important to them.
