Table Stories | Homemade Classic Guacamole

These days, when I do not need to deal with works, I tried to lead a slow life. I enjoyed waking up in the morning by freshening up myself with a glass of home-pressed juice.

If time allows, I would spend some time in the kitchen to prepare food myself, it’s just wonderful moments. The sound coming from the kitchen, it filled with all the chopping, tapping and peeping sound that came from all sort of equipment and procedure.

Have you experience something like this before? A day you hate it like forever but another day, you just fall in love before you could realize it? It happened to us, especially myself, I used to hate avocado but I just can’t remember when did I already fell in love with it!

My first experience with avocado is quite extraordinary, it’s creamy, oily with a fresh grass taste. However, right now it just a nature taste that I will consume everyday!

Do not underestimate the green little devil! Avocado could make into all kind of dishes and drinks. While we would love to share one of our favorite – the guacamole dip. It’s everyone favorite, even someone like my sister, Joe who wasn’t a huge fan of avocado, she enjoys having her toast, taco chips or cracker with the dip! It’s a must to serve along with the wheat chips when we having a movie night every Friday!
