Mrs. MacGyver makes guacamole


Mr. & Mrs. MacGyver Solution #4 

Guacamole – no bowl, no fork, no problem!

Background: At our home here in Honiara, we have an avocado tree which produces huge, wonderful avocados in January and February and we’ve looking forward to enjoying them! In preparation to our return, we brought along packets of guacamole mix and our colleagues were able to send down a couple of avocados. 

Problem: We only have plastic forks and no bowl.

Solution:

Place a ziplock bag in a coffee press (to keep it upright). Place slices of avocado in the bag and sprinkle guacamole mix on top. Close the bag and mash the avocado and mix in the seasoning. Open the bag and squeeze out guacamole. Add chips and enjoy!

Mr. & Mrs. MacGyver – Solution #2

Problem: After we wash our clothes by hand, we needed a way to hang them up. Fortunately, we brought a travel clothesline. We took a picture down from the wall and used the nail underneath it for one end of the line. The only other object suitable for the other end was a circuit board – but the line was a little too short to reach that.

Solution: Mr. MacGyver took out a belt and wrapped that around the circuit board and attached the end of the clothesline to the belt. Now we have a clothesline for drying our wash!
