    Ohhh this just looks sooooo good. The avocados we have here are horrible and even if they fell good to the touch they are black and brown when cut into. Sooo I will have to wait on this one.

    I recently was in contact with a birder who visited Uganda and said that quite often for breakfast he had avocado with poached eggs on top. Not a combination I would have thought of, but I will give it a try.
