While at our daughter's, Ken brought in this bowl filled with avocados and said that was about half of what was on a branch that had fallen! We boxed and sent the bulk of these to our other daughter on the east coast, and we still took home this many again!
As CC @gardenfolk had said, these are a perfect size to cut, sprinkle with salt and a little lemon/lime juice and eat right out of the leather-like rind! Each of us has something special about the places we live; this happens to be one of our delights!
@casablanca You'd better believe I wish I could share them more freely! Daughter, Heather, loves receiving a box of them and goes on to share them again with friends and co-workers!
They look delicious, Louise! Thanks for the shout out. I wish we had an avocado tree and our own mandarin tree in our yard today. I am lucky to have the Meyer lemon tree and magnolia tree but I cannot get my hubby interested in planting any other trees. We have hard pan so I cannot dig the hole.
