staying home for lunch today. mom's cooking fish head curry complete with fried pampodums. i'm not the biggest fan of fish head curry but i'll take a couple of bites for morale support i suppose.

josh quite liked my guacamole(4th attempt). made some for brunch yesterday. my first attempt was a disaster. my guacamole wasn't even a shade of green, it was coral?! i realised it was prolly the result of the 2 unripened avocados i blended in.
my second attempt simply didn't fall through cuz the 2 avocados i set aside to ripen, well i sorta manage to forget about them and flew off to dubai for a week. it upset mom a little when the avocados started oozing some greenish liquid over other veggies in the vegetable drawer. she unceremoniously dumped them into the trash before i could return home to salvage some.
third attempt: a success! like finally right..
mommy and i devoured a bag of nachos with my homemade guacamole while watching ip man(pronounced as eep-mun, not I-P-MAN i don't see the difference) on DVD last week.
it's got my vote. i wanted to write it off as another asian bruce lee flick but it had substantial storyline to pull it off.
hur hur..i'm gonna be damn not shy and share my(or rather it's karol's handed to me) guacamole recipe. easy-peasy. the only challenging part is getting the avocados right, i mean ripe.
Trust me.


Guacamole Recipe
2 avocados(ripe and regular-sized)
1 tomato
1 onion(small-sized big onion)

salt & pepper

The How To
