Avocado trick!

Good Wednesday morning everyone. Happy Wednesday, and for me clean sheet, sushi night and weigh in day. I've lost another pound this week. Not setting the world on fire, but slowly starting the flames! It's going forward towards a goal that counts, not how long it takes to get there.

I wanted to share a tip that I found recently about storing avocados. I made a wonderful salad with a soy dressing the other day, and put chopped avocado on it. I have tried all sorts of ways to keep the avocado from turning brown when I need to store half of it. I have brushed it with lemon, and covered it with saran wrap upside down and cut side up.They still turn brown.  I read a tip that said to store it upside down in water. I know it sounds funny, but I tried it and it worked beautifully. I left the pit in. The one I have in my fridge from Sunday, still looks good. It does get alittle mushy around the pit, but that easily scrapes away with a spoon and the flesh is still green and firm. Try it and let me know what you think!

Thought for the day:  Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
