Not mine by any means, but I just discovered the existence of this refined bit of chocolate confectionery. I think I may have to visit Manhattan or Vegas to get a slice, though.

One of my favorites, but for some reason I can't talk anyone else in my house to put it on our menu. For me, it's a restaurant-only choice. Tonight: baked pasta with pesto and tiny tomatoes. And red wine. Lots of red wine.

On the menu today is veggie couscous with harissa coated eggplant.
I have plenty of avocados right now that are just about to become the perfect ripeness and I have no idea what to do with them. I'm bored with all the usual ways I have them, ie. avocado pasta, chopped in salads, guacamole and simply spread on a sandwich instead of butter.
Ideas?

If you can sail here by dinner time, I'll give you some couscous.
I still need some new ideas for the avocados, though.

Avocado and lime tart does sound interesting. Any more details on it?
I like to eat avocado with bread too, but for some reason I'm just not feeling it right now. Avocado smeared on dark rye bread with a little salt and basil and tomato or cilantro and red onion. Ahh, that's really good, but I just haven't felt like eating bread for a few weeks now.

That does look intriguing. I'll have to think about making it for the weekend if I can find good dates.https://www.waitrose.com/content/wa.../recipe_directory/a/avocado-lime-tart.A4.html

I mostly grow it because it's pretty and the bees can't get enough of it. I have a friend who eats both the flowers and the leaves. As far as I know, he only eats them fresh in salads, sandwiches, that sort of thing. The flowers are more delicate in flavor than the leaves, I think. The texture of the leaves is unpleasant to me.
It's worth growing just for the bees, though. No other herb, flower, or vegetable I've put in my garden has drawn bees like borage, and bees are so good for the garden.

Rabbit croquettes.
Instead of the smattering of veg in the recipe (1t per cup of meat) I did a whole cup of hearty stew type veg. Onion, carrot, celery, garlic, mushroom and parsley.
I also added a smattering of parmesan to the white sauce so it had a lovely hint of alfredo-ish-ness.
I love croqettes. My kiddo thought these were pretty awesome. My husband doesn't love them but was kind enough to "mm-hmm" and nod his head when I asked what he thought of them.
