avocado? guacamole…..
- Ingredients:
- 2 Ripe Hass avocados
- 1 1/2 Tablespoon finely diced red onion
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except for the avocado. Next, peel and remove the seed from the avocados. Dice the avocado into 1/2 inch pieces. Add the avocado to the mixing bowl with other ingredients and using a fork gently smoosh the avocado a few times, you do not want to make a paste, make sure you maintain some texture. Serve with some tortilla chips or cover with plastic wrap to prevent browning.

currently one of my best friends is just weeks away from playing dress up & taking on the role of ‘the most beautiful bride there ever was’… and becoming a wife! SO exciting! && i couldn’t be more happy for her! this past week, we celebrated her & showered her with love & pretty presents (mine is the one photographed below :)) it was a precious shower, hosted by her maid of honor! she did a great job planning & had everything super organized, which made it easy to help set up! hooray for a party :) we love you gaby!
BE
on friday my family… (well, part of it) and i went up to estes park for a day full of nothing.
life is so full.
full of good things, great things, not as great things, work, things to do, you name it. let me tell you… it was SO nice to put away ‘the list’ and just go and DO. we didn’t have an agenda, didn’t really pick a time to leave. just woke up, got ready & drove up to one of the most beautiful places you will visit. my family has been going to estes park for as long as i can remember. we have an annual trip in october that we go on & stay overnight in a cabin on the river. everyone is there & it’s pretty much the best time ever. this was just a quick day trip, but equally fulfilling. we hiked. it rained. we ate at our usual burger place. walked the town. just spent time.
more than anything it got me SO excited for our trip in a few weeks! anyhow. take time this week to do nothing. no phone. no internet. no distractions. just BE. it’s great :)
happy monday!
