Holy moly — its "National Guacamole Day" at Merrill Gardens! Residents had a great time preparing this tasty side dip with fresh ingredients. We cut veggies and herbs and used new tools like the mortar and pestle and tomato dicer. We were sure to share with neighbors and team members at our Guacamole Social. It paired very well with the chips and red salsa provided by Page and Jerri. Thanks to everyone for the group effort!
