Mango shake with sone mango slices on top 

Combined two recipes: Pasta with Greens +Lemon Pasta.  Pretty yummy. Topped it with fresh basil and Parmesan and had to jazz up the sauce with a little Jalapeño salt.  Had a side of avocado.  Almost finished with the avocados my neighbor brought back from her sister’s tree in California.  They all started ripening around the same time. Been a race to eat them before they go bad. Think we’ve timed them just right. ❤️

The community gardens where I lived in the US had a grove of avocado trees. There was always guacamole in my kitchen. Miss the taste of that buttery goodness on toast! 

Today's dinner: pan fried sardines, green salad, lentil soup and rice.

How do you store leftover parmesan + lemon pasta?

 The Butterfly:

No avocado trees in the state where I live, just imports that are hit and miss in quality. These avocados were big and the insides perfect.

Yup, I lived in Georgia which as far as I know is perfect for growing nothing except the crime rate. Don't know how they wintered or what they fed those trees. But fresh avocados are always a treat!
