We have 13 mango trees in our yard! Needless to say, we have more mangoes than we could EVER consume. These green mangoes which are growing in our yard are cooking mangoes. Priya made a mango curry for us which looked like very dark applesauce. It was very sweet but of course with a "little bit" hot, as she says! Translation: No Indian food can be well-prepared without chili powder! It was to be eaten with flatbread. It was interesting but probably won't be on the menu again :) We are giving them away in bagfuls to everyone who works for us so at least they are being eaten. The yellow mangoes are probably what you've seen or had in the stores. They are the most juicy, yummy fruit you can imagine. I've decided they are a combination of peaches, oranges, and pineapple rolled into one fruit! Sorry I can't bring some home this summer to share, but I don't think customs would be too thrilled about that!

I just can't get into mangoes. I think they taste like soap.
Danie,
You must buy your soap at Bath and Body Works where they have soap that smells so good you could eat it :)
