Steve pleaded for you to stop and release him back into the wild, but you just went back to your writing.</p><p>Then, perhaps Steve managed to escape, and you conveniently informed the Hootie Owl. Or, you’re orchestrating this as a ruse, holding onto Steve while planning to shift the blame onto the Hootie.</p><p>You’ve sneakily spread rumors that Steve has headed North, all while secretly keeping him captive and feigning ignorance about his whereabouts.</p><p>To disguise the fact that you’ve captured Steve, you’ve taken a picture of his cousin and are pretending it’s Steve.</p><p>Mr. Marcus, come clean.

He contacted me via my window and he is now my client.</h4><p>My client has been the victim of defamation of character by Mr. Marcus, who falsely alleges that my client “cussed” him out! What a very tall and fabricated tale!</p><p>On the night of whatever night it was, the giant human did intend to hurt my client. The humans eyes glowed in the dark and Steve was terrified!</p><p>My client decided that the only way to defend himself was to get his hazel nuts and launch them at the human, and started shaking his body about to frighten the human away.</p><blockquote>Also, Marcus is not to speak to him or approach him on the street or look up at him in his tree. Yes, it is his tree!</blockquote><p>🐿️Steve saw this human as a predator and it was all about self preservation. He might try to catch Steve and barbecue him!</p><p>Steve just did not know what to do.</p><p>I concur that my client has been left traumatized and feeling that this human has no respect for his feelings.</p><h4>Thus, I respectfully ask the court , to fine Mr Marcus.</h4><p>For him to pay the sum of all his future medium earnings to Squirrel Steve.</p><p>As it does get extremely hot in Texas during the summer months, Steve would like to visit the UK where the weather is milder.</p><p>This money would facilitate this temporary move.</p><p>He also has been told that Sophia Tell is there and she is more friendly than Marcus!</p><h4>Additionally, Steve would also like an apology from Marcus.

He does not require the home.</p><p>Additionally, Marcus is not to speak to him or approach him on the street or look up at him in his tree with those piercing eyes.

I am a fine piece of writing paper, all be it with the stains of her beautiful ink words. Some of my friends sit miserably outside the bin.

I know she will regret it.</p><p>I try to float out, to implore her that these words have meaning, that she just had to wait. I try to uncrumple myself so she can see what she has written but nothing helps. I am a gonna!</p><p>Goodbye, dear writer. I will miss your words.

It was meant for our avo-cuddle session!</p><p>Now, I’ll have to express my undying love to you without the fruit, but how can it ever be the same without its fruity presence?</p><p>Couples are taking their love for the green superfood to a whole new level, and instead of classic ring boxes, people are carving the pit out of the avocado and replacing it with an engagement ring to pop the question to their partners.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/proxy/1*EKicdOf3uoGmZdiXv7ymdQ.jpeg" /><figcaption>Photo by<a href="https://medium.com/@sophiatell2022/about"> Author</a> Generated <a href="https://www.bing.com/images/create">By Bing.com images</a> Will you avo-cuddle me?</figcaption></figure><p>There are now couples using avocados to place the ring in it and propose to their intended.</p><p>Very fruity indeed!</p><p>I do hope they eat it afterwards.

I hope their marriages last longer than the avocado will! I adore avocados.</p><p>However, one of my biggest frustrations with them is their short shelf life. Despite my best efforts, they often turn brown and spoil within a day, even when stored in the fridge.</p><p>Determined to find a solution, I’ve embarked on a mission to mash this avocado problem.</p><p>So, I noticed in the local store, Iceland, that they used to sell avocados peeled and cut in half, frozen.</p><p>I did purchase these a few times, but when defrosted, they never quite came out the same, always a bit soggy and within the hour would go black.</p><p>But I am determined to find a solution as they have such good benefits.</p><h3>Benefits of Avocados:</h3><p>Avocados are packed with all the good stuff — fiber for a happy tummy.</p><p>Vitamins ( C, E, K, B-6) for a popping complexion, and minerals like potassium and magnesium for that extra push of vits!</p><p>They’re superfood for your brain.</p><p>With antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, they will fight that aging.</p><p>So wear it, eat it, and <em>PROPOSE</em>, if you must, with it!</p><h3>What I Am Going to Do to Make Mine Last Longer:</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*OlZ0Arlf919A-am7" /><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@eggbank?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral">eggbank</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p>I am going to try and brush the avocado with lemon and see if it stops it from going brown.</p><p>I researched and found that if you mash the avocado up, add lemon and store it in an airtight container, then it should last for up to 2 to 3 days. I will try this one!</p><p>I also have read that if I put an onion in with the avocado that it will also slow the process down. So I am going to try both over the next few days and let you know.</p><p>I was thinking of pickling them, but not a fan of pickled stuff! I thought that if I made it into guacamole it would last longer, but it did not!!</p><p>Any ideas or things that work, please let me know.</p><p>By Sophia Tell!</p><p>Have a Fabulous day</p><ul><li><a href="https://medium.com/@sophiatell2022/subscribe">Get an email whenever Sophia Tell- Stories 🤓📢🤓 publishes.</a></li><li><a href="https://medium.com/stories-with-a-slice">Stories With a Slice</a></li></ul><h3>Reference</h3><p>Daily Mail.
