Mangoes ! ! !



It´s that time of year again.
They´ve been hanging quietly in the trees everywhere, getting bigger and changing colours. And now they are just falling out of the skies.

Mangoes! They taste like barbequed chicken and perfume, for real! The ordinary mango is yummy and encourages flossing! and the "Rosa", wow wee!!
It´s no surprise (it is at first, mind) that neighbours are so protective of their "Mango Rosas" and that they are three times more expensive in the supermarkets. It´s because they are three times more yummy!

And what magnificent trees, they are throbbing with life. Birds, monkeys, insects, it doesn´t stop there.

Here, you can see six in a glass, yummy.
It´s a good time of year to have a plastic bag with you.

And news to me, pomegranet tea is great for sore throat. What a great fruit from such a straggly bush. And how useful a skin which at first seems only good for composte. Pomegranets will always remind me of my Gran, and I give thanks.
Bye bye ´flu, bye bye!
