I forgot. Sugar snap peas in hummus....
I sent my kids out last year to pick some peas - they came in empty handed. Little boogers ate the dern things before they got inside :gig
They all gathered on the deck and ate em! (they had two friends over)
Sounds like something I would do! Green beans rarely make into the house here either.

Anyone grow their own avocados? I've tried & tried, but I can't get a pit to sprout.

I would love to have an avocado tree! I'd make myself sick on'em. My FFIL has a little avocado tree in his living room. I wonder if he would know how to get one to sprout?

What kind of climate do you need to grow an avocado?

Serendipity. I was at the grocery store and they had ripe avocados. We had guacamole with our dinner. I ate mine with my baked chicken while I watched DH scoop it up with corn chips and DS turned his nose up at it yet again. mmmmmmmmmm!

I believe that Avos have to be grafted. They grow well here in so cal!

Noobie, I made the kale chips! Wow, that is like a little crunchy bit of salty air. I loved them, although I was a little heavy handed with the salt.

Thanks for the recipe!
