it's mango season! breakfast for this season is different from last season. for breakfast every morning i have a cup of coffee [milk, honey, no sugar - sounds like i'm being "chummy" with someone] and a mango. chummy is like getting fresh with someone. if you're here, that's one of those things you pick up on too soon. that. and the saying hus ge to phus ge [she laughed so she's trapped]. back to the subject. mangos. my nano says mango is garam[warm] food. even if it's fruit and best when served chilled. in our culture there are garam or warm and thanda or cold foods. not all warm foods are warm and not all cold foods are cold. some warm foods are cold and some cold foods are warm. can you dig it? i didn't get that until she hypothesized that garam food was any food with lots of sugar. and seeing that my granma's general knowledge exceeds mine, i'm going with it. she's one smart cookie but we'll talk about granma and cookies some other time. now for some breakie breakie breakfast
