Here is a life update for June 2010:

Mango pie #2
And for the record, the mango pies were scarfed down within minutes. People go crazy over this pie.... and it is SO SIMPLE! I recently posted a mango pie recipe here, but i simplified it a bit.
MANGO PIE:
ingredients:
dates, mangos, and any fruit to decorate the top
directions:
1. puree dates and a tad of water in a food processor until smooth. Thickly coat the bottom of a pie pan & put in freezer to set.
2. cut & freeze mangos. Puree in food processor until smooth (creating mango icecream) - spread into pie pan, above date crust.
3. decorate with fruit (such as bananas and berries)
4. DEVOUR and ENJOY!
BIKE RIDING
Tim and I have been going on bike rides lately as a cross training cardio workout.
