Australia

For my college graduation present, my parents bought me a plane ticket to visit my best friend who lives in Australia. I stayed in Sydney for 3 weeks and it was by far the best vacation I have ever taken. Australia is beautiful.

I miss my friend but life goes on I suppose.

Recipe: Baked Avocado Fries

Not really a surprise that I love avocados. They’re the quintessential California fruit and they're so versatile. I like avocados on burgers, sandwiches, chili, tacos, omelets, salads, etc. Totally “nature’s butter”. When I first tried Baked Avocado Fries, my mind was blown. It’s crispy on the outside and so creamy on the inside. The key is to eat it hot out of the oven because leftover cold and soggy avocado fries are gross.
