my brain has turned to avocados

after 22 years of being afraid of the slimey, chunky, green stuff, i finally caved, and fell head over heals for the fabulous fruit:
the avocado.
i can't get enough of the stuff.
it's like i'm making up for lost time.

not only are they yummy yummy yummy,
they have great health benefits as well!
they are full of B, E & K, have more potassium than a banana, and are a healthy fat.
sounds like a good reason for me to eat as well!

i've been craving this beautiful sandwich since the very first time it popped up on my pin-feed.
