Since I used up leftovers tonight, and I didn't do
anything special with them, I decided to make something
to go with them. I had picked up a beautiful avocado at
the supermarket yesterday and some poblanos, so I decided
to make some guacamole. I adapted a recipe I found in a
book and this is what I came up with. It came out
delicious - DH ate almost all of it.
