Aguacate

Check out what we have growing on the big tree in our front yard . . . AGUACATES!!!  That would be "avocados" in English.  I've never been a big fan, but here in Costa Rica, people absolutely love them!  We were told some months back that the aguacates would come around January, and that was exactly right.  And what is even more exciting is the fact that Samuel can hardly get enough of them!  He loves them plain or with a little bit of lime juice.  Just this past weekend, Cohen and Samuel went out front to see if they could harvest some big ones a little higher in the tree.  The harvest was plentiful!  Our maid, and friend, Rosa says that she is going to fatten Samuel up with these aguacates before we leave Costa Rica :-)  Yum, yum, eat up little man!!
