For FRANCISCO's birthday we made a LICURI cake with AVOCADO frosting.
FRANCISCO is the theater teacher who comes up from Salvador two days a week.
LICURI is a local and somewhat endangered crop. One of AEC-TEA's many projects is to promote the use and appreciation of this nut. It is a TINY coconut, smaller than a hazelnut. We use it constantly, and we will be participating in the licuri festival on Sunday.
AVOCADOS are only eaten sweet here. The locals think guacamole is a horrible idea. We live under an avocado tree- a treacherous yet blessed existance.
