MANGO MADNESS


Inappropriate title I know. Sorry. I had just returned from 4 days and 3 nights camping with CEDEM to find that the house was locked and the keys were no-where to be seen.

I was thirsty and had no water, so I thought that I could follow the kids’ example and ‘casse un mange’- pick a mango from the tree.

That I did, and bit in it to find it was very hard and bitter but still provided a bit of moisture- my saving grace.

However, since then I have found a singly yellow mango hanging joyfully from a supply branch. Yesterday night (9th December) we had a friend over from Albion that Katie and Chloe know from work so I cut up this little gem into four and inside we were greeted with delicious, sweet and most importantly ripe yellow mango! Fantastic.
