FRIDAY NIGHT FISH FEAST ~ GRILLED TUNA TOPPED with AVOCADO SALSA

GARDENING NOTE: Celanine poppy ( Stylophorum diphyllum) and Virginia Bluebells (Mertenisa virginica) are two lovely companion plants for naturalizing in the early wildflower garden. Since plants go dormant, both are a perfect choice for a hosta garden.
