Sanswich.

You read it right, not a typo. I made up a new snack for my friend Meg. She asked me to guest post on her blog, and as always I am honored to do so.

Full of energy and always smiling, Meg’s upbeat nature is a bright spot in my day! We also share a love of Long Dogs, as she has a cute dachshund Cara. Such sweeties, both of them!

So go visit Meg at Sunshine ‘n Spice to see what I’m up to today!

I’m pretty sure I love it just because of the punny name.

I’m easy.

[Not THAT kind of easy. GOSH Kristina, get your mind out of the gutter girl.]

I love breadless sandwiches! And the colour of the avocado sauce… sadly, and surprisingly, avocadoes aren’t big in Brazil. And, they eat them like fruit by sugaring them. I say Spabettie avocado sauce FTW!

this avocado sauce ends up on a lot around here… salads, crackers, fingers. ;) HMMM… I have added avocados to a sweet smoothie, but have never thought of eating one with sugar!! I bet it is delicious!
