Bought a few local avocados from kakak. Mum loves avocados! When I went to the pantry to
choose, i was amazed at how big there were!! The skin was dark
purple in colour and from far, they kinda look like eggplant!
I want avocado milk.....
When I brought them home to show mum, mum was surprised at their
size too! So how did we eat these babies? We made avocado milk every
morning. It's fatty i know but in a good way, so never mind :P I
remember, when i was in Hanoi in 2008 (has it been that long??), we
found this place that serves many variety of fruit drinks. And one
of our favourites is ice-blended avocado milk of course! We went
there everyday for it! It was pretty cheap too.. $4 for a big cup I
think.
Mum loves avocados so much that we even have an avocado tree in Aust home. When mum made sushi for us,
she always put a lot of avocado slices... Do you know that avocado
goes very very very well with Japanese mayo? Double the fat but it was
yummmm... :P Recently, mum managed to grow an avocado tree here.... from
scratch. She brought many avocados back from Aust and decided that
she wanted a tree here so she could just pick her favourite fruit
from the garden next time... so she planted the avocado seed and
it's growing fast! Hope I don't have to wait long to pick my own
avocados!! hehe...
I must say, mum has a green thumb. She can grow anything she wants. Of course she showers them with lots of love too... Just look at the fruit trees in our garden!
Pameloes danggling on the tree!
Assorted tropical fruits in the garden!
We also have mango tree, passion fruits, coconut trees and just not
long ago, mum planted durian tree! ha! this, i will have to wait a
very long time before i can enjoy its fruits. I wonder if I would
still be around by then... :S

i know aunty green fingers, but the seeds she used were from Australia wor, can adapt our weather meh? ask her to use local seed also, make her success story prevail mah~
How do your mom plant the durian? by seed or by 插枝? if it's the later, in a few year u could be picking durian from your house. If by seed, than probably after u retire lah~ a little advice from half-farmer's family :)
yeah, mum has magic hands and i have magic stomach for i seems to be able to eat everything mum produces haha..
