Sammy's Tale Twister 1: I LUB HER!

During an afternoon ride home from pre-K (5 years ago). Sammy spoke incessantly about a little girl in his class. Upon nearing the house, Sam's Dad said "sounds like you have a little crush and you really like this girl".
Sammy defensively responded "Dad! I...DON'T..LIKE HER! Long pause......but...but... I LUB HER."
Sam's dad laughed and said: "THAT'S OK SAMMY. THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOUR MOM!"

RECIPES #8: GUACAMOLE HEAVEN

Time to prepare: 10min
Servings: 2
Eat immediately or it will brown.

There is nothing better than fresh Guacamole Salad to eat with chips, to spoon over Taco Salad, or served as a side on Mexican Dinner night.
Fast, easy and de-lish-ous!

How to pick an Avocado: I like the smaller Avocados because the inside taste meatier and not so watered down. If you are ready to make this dish today, pick the ones that are dark brownish-black. They should be soft to the touch but not so soft they are mushy inside. If your a couple of 3 days out from making this recipe, pick the Avocados that are brighter green and hard. Allow them to ripen on the counter for 1-2 days and then refrigerate til you are ready but don't keep them longer than a week. They will get mushy fast. $1 a piece is a pretty good price. 2 for a $1 is a bargain ... buy lots if you see this price.
