I don’t need them for another few days, so it didn’t matter that every avocado in the huge display was rock-hard. I was amused by their proclamation, though: “Buy me, I’m ripe! I promise!”

    I hate when they do that – It happens quite a bit -I see that bright sticker race over to grab a “ripe” one and it is like a brick. Kind of scares you that someone actually thinks these are ripe – their senses are off. I wonder what else they put on or more important do not take off the shelves.

    I agree! I find it ironic -and it happens to me ALL the time!

    This is the best headline! I can just imagine a bunch of avocados scheming to ruin the consumer’s plan to make guacamole that night.

Cheesy Kale Crisps: We rarely eat kale now that our farm share is over, and I want to fix that. I've wanted to try using nutritional yeast, and this recipe looks like a tasty way to do it.

"Shake It Out" by Florence + the Machine. This song reminds me of Annie Lennox, and I love tracks that include a huge, gospel-like chorus.
