I suppose it’s possible to have too much of a good thing. Too many avocados? I’m not sure that’s possible.
What? You don’t store your extra avocados in the oven?

Stories Inspired by Life in Rural Brazil
Fotocrônica: Purple Eggs
Over here the avocados are not very good (small and fibrous). Coming to Brazil I was looking forward to try new recipes, and try to appreciate the sweetness of the fruit, the Brazilian way. Unfortunately I’ll have to way to be living in the SP region for that. What do you do with so much of it? I’ve heard it cannot be cooked…
Mostly here we mix them in milkshakes (unbelieveably good, but filling!) and eat them straight with a spoon, maybe a sprinkling of sugar (yeah, sugar–never would have thought to try it until I got here). We also throw it on salads and eat it as a side-dish with dinner, although that’s not very Brazilian of us. It is also my daughter’s favorite fruit, so they definitely don’t go to waste in our home!
