One of my favorite things in the world is the way avocado is good for you. Rich, creamy, decadent and fresh-tasting avocado is actually heart-healthy, something you want as part of your regular diet, and when you hear that, it's almost as good as when all those studies came out talking about how dark chocolate has health benefits, too! Mother Nature truly is a wonder.

One of my favorite ways to eat avocado is by sandwich. It's always been a kind of condiment for me, in my sandwich assemblies, but Vera, from The Hungry Tiger, has constructed a glorious gift of an open-faced sandwich that features--no, glorifies--the jewel-green and healthy-delicious avocado. Crusty bread, honey mustard, splinters of crisp red onions, and then, a tiny little orgasm in your mouth. The simplest things, they are the most delicious. One more cheer for that Mother Nature lady.
