I Have the Mango Crusty Lips Blues

I love mangos.

WTF you say"? You never ate a fresh mango?

Eaten as fresh fruit, mango ice cream, mango soda, mango crunch, mango tarts, mango shakes and even mango Icees from 7-11. From the first turpentine mango I ate in Liberia to the wonderful mango's found on Pine Island Florida to the rare tree in the back yard that stated as a seed in the compost pile and rivals the best mangos I have ever had from a grafted variety.

Now I have the mango Crusties. Little bumps at the corner of my mouth. A rash that burns, worse with salt. Dry, scaly herpes like lips. Hurts to smile.

Just a touch of mango skin to my lips brings on the crusty's. I am lucky that after a two weeks of slobbering through mango's, all i get is crust in the corners of my mouth.

I am allergic to latex, poison ivy, so bad that I contacted it in January in Michigan and poison sumac of which mangos are in the same family.

I will never stop eating mangos and I will probably never learn not to eat them in moderation.

I am going to go eat some mango ice cream to sooth my lips.

The Two Million Year Old Smoothie

" Ancestors may have used bone tools to make smoothies
18:07 22 April 2009 by Ewen Callaway.

Ancient humans might have used animal bones to grind fruit smoothies as well as dig up termites, a new analysis of mysterious 1 to 2 million-year-old tools suggests."

WTF??? Where have I been?

I tried my first smoothie a few weeks ago. No one ever told me about them. No one ever bought one for me, till a few weeks ago.
I like them, a lot!

Now I am always on the look out for foods that I can make into a smoothie.

Why have I never had a smoothie before this? Why has no one ever told me how good they can be and that I should try one. Where is that list of things one should try before they die?

I have tried pickled goats eyes and other oddities. Why was I never told about smoothies? I think everyone were just keeping smoothies to themselves.

A mango's in the back yard just fell off the tree. Time to make some mango smoothies.

Now where did I leave my Super Bass-O-Mattic '76?
