It's a lovely sunny Sunday here by the mighty Niagara River. Got some much needed rain yesterday.
Made a food boo boo yesterday. In my quest for new and intriguing vegetables at the local grocery I saw a bag of avocados on sale. So picked them up. Can't say I've ever had avocado before, so cut one up and threw it in m dinner salad. When I went to update my food diary I learned that oh my, these things are incredibly calorically dense. Not something I can afford to do yet at this stage of the journey. It certainly was yummy, but I should have known that all of the truly yummy things with an awesome mouth feel have a high caloric cost.
Oh well. Eat, log and learn.
Pitter patter, off to weedwhack. (a most satisfying activity)

Hahaha I got 8 of them on sale the other day too!
Yes, an avocado can shoot up the total calories, but it is also full of good fats, fiber nearly offsets the carb count and its got lots of vitamins, minerals and 4g of protein per Avocado. My daily Calorie count certaily went up, but I am still staying under my set intake, which is 400 calories lower than my recommended RDI. LOL A weed is just a plant in the wrong place... have fun!

Love me an avo with brunch, but yes, you have to account for the extra calories elsewhere. But as adipose says, they are packed with a lot of good nutrients. Just make sure they are ripe, lol.... BLECH when they aren't. 😂
