Guacamole and Salsa

We had a fun Family Home Evening (FHE) this past Monday. We don't have much time after dinner that day, and Evan reminded us that we have not had a "fun" FHE for awhile (not that our FHE is boring, it's just that the kids get to pick whatever they want to do on a 5th Monday), so he decided that we should have games that night. The kids picked the "Mahjong" game (forgot to take a picture), and the whole family worked together for some homemade guacamole and salsa before we played.

I was determined on making salsa rather than buying it from the store because Jeannie finished a big jar of salsa dip all by herself in less than a week. I am happy to see her eating tomatoes for snack but I am also concerned about her sodium intake, and the preservatives comes with the bottle. It just makes me worry.

Johnny wanted to try out the guacamole recipe he learned from a restaurant when he went on a business trip in Texas. He was joking and bragging about it, "Let me show you how it's done, it's real easy!" Unfortunately, it did not turn out right because the guacamole wasn't ripe enough. Darn it, will have to wait for his show off next time! :)
