Chocolate, Colds

I'm a chocoholic and I know many other people are as well. I have just come across an article which says scientists expect chocolate to extinct by 2050.  What a dreadful thought. Apparently the company, Mars, are working with scientists to avert the crisis. My first thought was, I won't be around by 2050 my second was that the price of chocolate will start skyrocketing between then and now. This is all going to be caused by global warming which certain presidents say isn't happening!! Can you imagine a world without chocolate? All those delightful desserts and wonderful candies just disappearing. I have met people who don't like chocolate, but they are few and far between in my experience.

Of course being Monday, we bowl today. I don't know if Matt is going to bowl or not. We shall see. Fingers crossed please.

Forgot to mention Matt's cold/cough is getting better and mine has not been getting worse.

Here's a nice little breakfast dish, I am always looking for different things to do for breakfast. I think I would be eating the scooped out flesh of the avocado alongside the main dish. Think I might try it in the air fryer. It's just occurred to me that I would have to go into the store myself to ensure that I got big enough avocados. Mind you I would only get one at a time. Matt would never eat anything but his cereal for breakfast.

Eggs Baked in Avocado

2 avocados (extra-large)
salt
black pepper
4 eggs

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

2. Slice the avocados in half and discard the pits. Use a spoon to scoop out a portion of the flesh from the center of each half, leaving a 1/2-inch border of flesh in the skin. Reserve the scooped-out avocado flesh for another use. (Pro Tip: Use the largest avocados possible to ensure that a full egg can fit inside!)

3. Arrange the avocado halves cut side up in a square baking dish. Sprinkle the cavities with salt and black pepper. Carefully crack an egg into the center of each half and season with additional salt and black pepper to taste.

4. Bake the eggs on the middle rack of the oven until the whites are set, 15-20 minutes.

5. Check to see that eggs are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

6. Serve immediately.
