and then eat my child.

Two buses, one subway, one "free" shuttle, 3 hours, 2 grocery stores, 2 organic markets, and 2 overpriced international supermarkets later, I finally found corn chips in Taipei.

don't let michael see those scandalous pics. i ate at an acapulco's in japan once and ordered nachos, and it was really just tortilla chips with lettuce on top and a sliced tomato. seriously that was it.

Aww, I feel like I've been taking avocados for granted, now. Hey, how long before you're back? I want your address, please!

Dear Ellen,
A couple months ago I reevaluated my somewhat abusive relationship with Avocado, whom I never really loved, ever. I'm sure you remember that instance where I pawned off poor Avocado online to the highest bidder (you), the way poor Asian brides are pawned off to creepy, disgusting Western mens online. Not that I'm comparing you to creepy, disgusting Western mens. I'm sure your love for Avocado is not based on horrible stereotypes (because you know, not all Avocados taste good or exist to serve and pleasure you), and I'm sure you and Avocado have a mutually beneficial relationship. Your tender photographs make me so proud and sure that your home was the best one for those 10 neglected Avocados. Coming back to my recent experiences with Avocado, I've realized that I actually really like Avocado! Avocado is good! Had I another 10, I would give you most, but I'd have to keep a couple for myself.
Love,
M.P.C

who is meat ball smell? i wouldnt know because i never see updates from her. speaking of which, melissa you must bring lots of avocados to korea because i doubt they love them the way we californians love them. my aunt said "Avocados? they make you fat!" So I am glad to see you are starting to appreciate avocados. at my moms house we eat it with soy paste (thick soy sauce). so many possibilities!
