Seriously laughing my head off over here…I LOVE YOUR LETTER!!! I could have written this exact same thing:-) I eat avocados all the time. Love the green stuff way too much!!!! I love that you turned them into fun lime avo popsicles…you are awesome:-)
I have to try these Popsicles. I have some Amazon gift cards burning a whole in my pocket and I think Popsicle molds are now a must have.
Is it ridiculous that the first thing I thought was, “this needs tequila?”
Oh shoot, alcohol doesn’t freeze, right? Or does it?
Okay, now you made me regret not trying this at your house! Hope you have some left because now I want one forreals. My love affair with avocado needs to grow darker, beyond the usual salads/guac/sandwich placement. Take me to the dark side, Dorothy!
Yes, you must, must go to the dark side. Hang out with me…I’ll take you there sometime. ๐
