Marimekko bowl + avocado dip

I recently made the totally frivolous purchase of two Marimekko bowls from the Crate and Barrel shop in Soho (I had a gift card, though it definitely did not cover it). I've been eyeing a lot of their designs online for quite some time (particularly this dress and this plate) but a pair of bowls seemed the closest to practical choice (we had a couple of bowls break in the past year...see?).

As for what's in the bowl...I gave this avocado dip a try. Not bad, though if you're going to make an avocado dip, you might as well make guacamole, which is just that much better. But it's nice to switch it up every now and then.
