More than a handful

 


Big Boy is very ill. We went to the vet last night at 5 pm.
He got additional meds. Details are on Fourpawsetc
I will be sporadic over the next few days, both posting and commenting

Heads UP! the avocados are ready to eat, Bob has had three that were delish and we have given about 20 away to people at the YMCA. I used to take a big bag and sit them on the table by the coffe pot. The coffee pot is gone, and we are not allowed to bring things in and leave them, due to the pandemic. I put 2 of these giant sized in a bag, and hand them out to people out side the door, or to people who have said they would like to have them.  One guy took 3 and made a huge batch of guacamole..  the one above weighed 1 and 1/2 lbs.

When Macie informed me it was time to wake up, before swinging my legs over the side of the bed I grabbed my glasses and phone to see if there were any updates on either of your blogs. Thank you for being such a loyal bloggy friend even amid your heartache.

Such a lovely avocado. I am green with avocado envy. GIANT brought us two. They looked OK until we cut them open. Both were half gone with rot even though they felt just barely ripe when you squeezed them. So sorry that BB is not feeling well.

I wished I liked avocados but I don't. Glad you are able to at least hand them out outside to people who want them.

What a nice surprise! After I did not see you last night, I figured things had gotten worse. But bad news. Maybe the new med regimen will really help, we can only wait and pray.

That's some large avocado and no wonder people like getting the ones ypou're giving away! Do you put yours in salads or make guacamole?

I'm so sorry to hear about BB. I will be going over to his blog right after this. Avocadoes straight off your tree? Lucky you! I love them.
