Like the avocado said...

So I work at a local community market in Santa Cruz, where the produce is local and organic and the vibes are amazing.  People love the spot and have been coming for 20 years.  It's been pretty fun to get to interact with the customers, hear stories and simply talk of food, California, the beach, the waves and life.  Very laid back, and chill, just the way I like it.

Recently the store put up employee picks, where we got to say what product we liked the best.  The answer for me was a no brainer, since I eat around 7 avocados a week.  A perk of the store is that we get the produce that is bruised/soft/funky and cannot be sold.  So I get to pick through the culled produce and grab amazing organic goodness all the time.  I wind up with a bunch of avocados which end up in guacamole, in salads, in sandwiches or with eggs.  Pretty much all the time, which makes life golden.  Tis the good life in California!

Here is how my love of avocados has been shown in the store:
