How to Edge a Flower Garden.
Somewhere deep in the comments section of some dark corner of the internet, I saw someone mention that putting a wedge of white onion in with a bowl of guacamole would keep it from going brown.Something about the sulfuric acid that the onion released.
Well, I didn’t have any white onion but I did have some green onion, so I just sliced the white parts of those up and a bit of the green too and put them in a container.. It’s an old sour cream container for the record.The idea is that you want something airtight.I left the pit in the half of the avocado that I didn’t use just for good measure and placed it face down on top of the sliced onion so they’d have as much contact as possible.. Then I put the lid on, stuck the whole thing in the fridge, and waited until lunch time the next day.
I was very hopeful since my lunch from the day before had been so delicious and I wanted to make it again!.It actually worked!.
It’s really no more brown than it would be from being out in the open air for 5 minutes!
I’m so excited to be able to have half an avocado for lunch now whenever I want!The ends were finished by just folding the excess fabric over the ends and then tucking them into the back.
Even if you have a ton of extra fabric, just keep tucking!You can’t get a much crisper end than that..
The overall effect over the kitchen sink, with my new table and chairs in the foreground.It’s just the look I was hoping for!
