Nice Tip, Marcel! - 31 July 2021 - Plague Journal Day 506

Micah 6:8
Galatians 5:22-23  Genesis 1:11
Yes, your life matters.

We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?

Today is National Avocado Day, so I'll share our amazing tip for keeping those little green devils fresh, tasty, and green.
Microwave them on high for about 30 seconds.
That's right, that's it. The microwaving, much like blanching other greens in boiling water, sets the chlorophyll and keeps the avocado from browning and getting horribly soft and mushy.
Many thanks for this tip go to Marcel Vigneron who discovered it in the heat of battle. I don't know if he really believed it as he did it, but we have found it works every time.

Now go forth and guac!

Microwaves have settings for everything these days!

Keep Calm and Don't Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.
The mental health issues related to our lockdown and the pandemic are especially hard for people with depression. NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, has a 24 hour helpline: 800-950-6264.
