"To taste" does take a while to learn, but at least you're trying and learning your taste! YAY!

I'm still afraid of making homemade guac, mostly because I don't want to acknowledge the existence of avocado in it. I really don't like avocado. I'll just pretend it's some sort of unpronounceable foreign thing when I eat guac.
