I have to thank my raging, psycho-bigot father for being so over the top that at a very young age I knew there was something wrong with saying horrible things about people.

My one, huge faux pas was sharing a cartoon with the Danes I was living with in Copenhagen. My surrogate mom sent me one of those single panel jobs featuring a couple of Viking giants. One of them had two tiny fellows in his hand and said to his partner, "I went out and got us a couple of Danish for breakfast." I laughed like a drain until I saw my friend's faces.

A) No breakfast pastry in Denmark is called Danish. B) WTF! You're saying we are puny?!

That was a serious, pleasegodopenaholesoImightfallinit moment.

Plus, I was 36...no youth-excuse.

Guac is one of those things that's better if you make it early, right?

vw - just make sure its covered well or it will go brown.

Meaning? Make it in the morning and let it sit?

I make it right before (or within ~1 hour) it's going to be consumed, because it turns brown if it sits too long.

vw, guacamole may be better when fresh ... although I believe the lime juice keeps it from going all brown and icky.

Ok. Nevermind. Will make tomorrow.

Also, this will be a surprise to no one. I have too much craft stuff.

It doesn't take too long for the flavors to meld into goodness, but if you do make it any more than like 30 min in advance make sure you have lime juice in there and it is covered really well. Preferably with saran rap actually like on the green goop.

Congrats MM! That's wonderful news.

MM- excellent news! Woo hoo!
