My Mangos Are Ripe and My Banana is Happy!


Sunday June 26, 2011

This weekend has felt like a summer solstice celebration. We spent this morning nursing the sunburns that we achieved at an all day beach party with some friends. We applied sun screen twice throughout the day, but when you spend 7 hours in the sun, it is recommended to apply it four times. I'm not kidding the bottle actually says that it "maintains" it's SPF for 80 minutes. Hmph. No more losing track of time!

This afternoon we all went food shopping and bought a dozen over ripe mangos for six bucks. I love mango season. Then this evening, while the steaks were on the grill the kids ate giant pickles and a plate of chopped up mangos. YUM! Nothing says summer like over ripe fruit and a pickle wrapped in a paper towel.
After making a frozen mango sorbet we only have two mangos left. Unfortunately, I think the
family is all mango-ed out, but hey! At least my banana is happy!
