Sunday Smile: Mango Madness!

As we’ve mentioned, it’s mango season here and we are absolutely inundated with the fruits. For those who thought we might be exaggerating or don’t understand the scale of mango season here in Brazil, here is a brief look at the land around the house. The fruit won’t go to waste, since there are plenty of residents who are more than willing to clear almost any mango that they cross paths with.

      most of the ladies eat the pits. rana is the only one who doesn’t eat them, but only sometimes. she’ll be chewing on them and casually spits the pit out.
