In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of strawberries sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Avocado has creamy, buttery flesh that is mostly fat rather than sugar, unlike most fruit. It is smashed on toast, sliced into salads and grain bowls, and mashed with lime and onion into guacamole.

Avocados range from small to very large, so half of a big one can be well over this portion.
