Thank you LilyE and Sheila,

I just realized that in my "ordinary, slightly isolated" life, I have never been to a Mexican restaurant. I will put that on my list of things to do in the big city.

I believe that I once saw guacamole when I was about 10 years old and wouldn't taste it. Would it seem right that a kid would say that it looks like barf? Anyway, now that I know they are the green, bumpy things that aren't cucumbers, I might make some guacamole for Christmas. After that I might tackle articokes..........hmmmm.......don't think I know what they look like either.
