Avocado, tomato and cucumber salad

Image
Last weekend, there was a pool hang out I was to go to. I wondered what I could possibly take to eat that would not be heavy, so I opted for a salad. It's the easiest thing to make. Ingredients - lemon juice - black pepper - coconut oil (I used this in the absence of olive oil and it worked perfectly!) - 8 avocados - 4 tomatoes - 2 large cucumbers Method of preparation I prepared the dressing a night before... - juice from one big juicy lemon - quarter teaspoon of black pepper - 2 tablespoons of coconut oil Mix these three ingredients in a bowl and cover then leave overnight in a cool place. I wanted all the ingredients to marinate into each other instead of having the taste of each one stand out, especially the black pepper. The next day, I chopped avocados, tomatoes and cucumbers into bite sizes then mixed them all up. I poured the dressing over, then put in the fridge. The salad was a winner! Healthy and not heavy, everyone loved it. Apologies I didn'

It's not so big a deal!

There are some things that hav e been causing wahala for me and I am wondering if other people have the same experience . Using people's photos as BBM or WhatsApp display pictures : When it is a person's birthday, there is a trend where the person's photo is displayed  along with wishes. This extends to when someone is getting married, celebrating a wedding anniversar y , a child's birthday and any possible thing to celebrate.  This is an amazing thing to do and it sure makes people feel acknowledged and special.  I have both of these applications on my phone and I use them like anyone else but there are certainly parts I know I do not explore.
