Avocados

Separating an avocado from it's seed can sometimes be hard work, but not when you use this simple method. Carefully slice the avocado lengthwise, going around the seed. Twist the two halves to separate. Covering your hand in a thick dishcloth, pick up the half with the seed in it, and with the other hand, hit the seed in a quick, short strike with a heavy handled knife to lodge in the blade. (To keep it safe, don't take any huge swings, let the weight of the knife do the work for you) Now gently twist the knife and seed out of the flesh. Voilà!
