Gazpacho voluptuous

GAZPACHO WITH WATERMELON AND AVOCADO

After several days of sitting out on the counter feeding the fruit flies,
even the firmest tomatoes start to slacken. That’s when you know it’s gazpacho time.
This time I added watermelon, because I had it and
because I wanted a slightly sweeter soup than usual.
For color and voluptuous texture, I floated buttery avocado cubes on top.
It was pretty enough to serve to company,
and expandable enough to use up all the soft tomatoes on the oozing brink.
