In the "Mango and Avocado Season" post below, I said that some of the mangoes we're picking "probably weigh almost a pound each." I was wrong. I just got out the scale and weighed one, and it was a little over FOUR pounds. I can make a pie out of one mango!
That is, of course, provided I don't just devour them. The other night I made some mango salsa from fresh mangoes and lime right off the trees, intending to put it over chicken breasts. I had to replan after I ate the whole bowl of salsa with a spoon before dinner. Oops.

I do things like that sometimes -- but, unfortunately it is not fruit that I usually use!!!! (involves more crunchies and salt) LOL
Sounds like you're still having fun. Has the lack of electricity over the whole country caused you any problems up your way??
Julian
Brenda - we can do it as a day trip, so let us know when you get there.
Julian - Yes, we're still having fun, and no, the electricity problems haven't affected us - one of the joys of being off the grid. Actually, from what I've heard, the problem wasn't as bad as they originally anticipated.
OK... Are you still going to have Mangos when we come in December? Mango Salsa is My FAV!
Lisa
Unfortunately, no mangoes in December. When the season is over, they're completely gone from the country until they start to get ripe next year. It's a bummer!
Can some? ;)
