Guacamole with a kick

April 25, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 19 Comments

Hi Everyone,

The past couple of days have been tiring!  I have worked 12 hour days, so I apologize for not commenting, but I promise to try to get to everyone’s comments.  I want you to know how much I appreciate them and I do read them all!

Today’s recipe makes me so happy because I was able to eat it without getting ill.  Sounds funny huh?  It seems in the past when I had anything with avocado I would get a horrible stomach ache.  But I’m a glutton for punishment so I thought I would try avocados one last time and guess what? no stomach ache!!  Woohoo!!

This guacamole is creamy and smooth just like a baby’s bottom.  It’s so good I could totally eat by the spoonful!  The guacamole that is, not the baby’s bottom.  lol


I decided to add just a little bit of jalapeno which gives it the right amount of kick!  It’s perfect!  I also added some onions, garlic, lime juice and other goodies to it.  This is perfect for scooping with chips, adding to sandwiches,wraps, taco’s and topping enchilada’s and burritos, oh the possibilities are endless.  Personally I think dipping into chips is the best way to go!!!  How do you like to eat your guacamole?

This recipe only makes one cup, so if you want more, which you will, I recommend doubling the recipe.  I went small on portion because I wasn’t sure if I could eat it, so next time you know I will most definitely be doubling or tripling this recipe!!  he he You have know idea how glad I am that I was able to have guacamole.  I always avoided it because of getting sick, but not anymore baby!!!  I’m all into this now!!

    Jenn, I totally understand about your working – I am a nurse and when I work, I do the 12 hour shifts so all I basically do it work and sleep and then do it all over again. My blog visiting is quite sporadic depending on my work schedule. The nice thing with my job is that when I’m off, I often have 3 or 4 days in a row off so that makes up for the craziness!
    Love this guacamole – I can eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

    My own personal sized dish of guacamole! YUM! I can get used to that, although I love guacamole so much I would probably need to double that recipe! hehe

    So glad you could eat your guacamole without a tummy ache! We grow avocados on our family farm…eat them every day! Early in the season they have less oil content than they will have late in the summer. I like my guacamole made with mild salsa…those jalapenos will give me a tummy ache!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!

Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden f Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden from last year. I’m gearing myself up to start working in the garden this weekend. It’s supposed to be mid 70’s. So if all goes planned you will be seeing quite a few gardening posts. 
🌺
Last years extreme summer heat took a major toll on my garden. I lost quite a few plants. 😫 For some reason I lost my Butterfly Bush. I plan on adding another one in the same spot. A lot of my lower flowers like Hummingbird Mint and my Coneflowers didn’t survive. We will be looking at the sprinkler system to make sure the plants are getting enough water. 
🌺
At least this garden is mainly annuals, so it should fill up with some color soon. I’m unsure what to do with my other gardens as my dogs have destroyed them. They keep on digging in the dirt. Maybe I should get them a sandbox to play in?
🌺
Have you started to work in your garden?
