Pater: How to grow an avocado. Again.

Posted by Pater , Friday, January 24, 2014 7:56 PM

So, AJ3, Pater was researching the best method to growing the optimum Avocado Junior.  Yes, AJ1 and AJ2 are fine specimens, but they both grew during the spring and summer months before being born in the autumn.  You, AJ3, have gone through a winter like this...

So Pater did some research and apparently, Mexico's rich volcanic soil, abundant sunshine and timely rainfall all provide the perfect climate for producing fine avocados.  So, leaving AJ1 and AJ2 in the safe and caring hands of Grandma Toronto, that's where Pater took Mater for a week of luxury, sun and rich volcanic soil...
You immediately thrived.  Or rather, Mater thrived whether on the sandy beaches, in the child-free pool or dressed up to the nines...
Pater, meanwhile, hung out with the natives...
We event learnt some Mexican.  Mater now knows how to ask for "una bebida no alcoholica", while Pater knows how to ask for "una bebida con alcohol adicional"... 
If our amazing week in Playa Del Carmen is anything to go by, AJ3...
...we have high hopes for another healthy, happy, crazy, loving Avocado Junior. Not unlike the ones we already have...
