Just in case you still have some guacamole...

To be fair, guacamole does not last long in Thathouse. I don't know that it's ever lasted more than two days. Mostly because we eat it nonstop. We put it on burgers, obviously, and chips, carrots, pita, apple, almost anything we can get our hands on. Which is not to deter the usual usage - atop perfectly cooked slices of steak resting in a warm corn tortilla - steak tacos!

The key is not to overcook your steak - steak tacos need not be relegated to overcooked leftovers, instead pick up a beautiful piece of sirloin and let the steak sing, covered with fresh onions, cilantro, salsa, and of course, who could forget, the guacamole!

And kids - don't forget a nice, icy cold beer to go with them - trust me.
