Thanks for the post Amy, I love this time you the year when farmers start to bring the fruit of their labor at the market!!!!
Side note: Did you know that if an avocado stays on his tree the fruit will not ripen for 7 month, their is a natrual chemical in the leaves that will preserve the fruits for that long!
The avocado ripen only when it's taken down the tree
How cool is that!
