Do you love avocados? Don't toss the pits in the trash! They can be upcycled into the most delightful foot and body scrub. The trick is to rinse the avocado pits and let them thoroughly dry for a week in a sunny spot in your home. When the pits are dried out, they'll split into quarter-pieces easily. Grind up those quarter-pieces in a food processor or coffee grinder until you get a coarse mixture, then add some lemon juice, a little mashed avocado, vinegar and coarse salt. Scrub away!
