Mango Mania
A dear friend from Dearborn gave me 5 big mangoes
Several days before, I also bought 2 huge mangoes from grocery
What should a girl do with 7 huge mangoes ?
I made mango pudding and mango popsicle
Basically I just made mango smoothie...
mix some mango chunks with sugar and skim milk..
put them in the blender..then blend everything well
put the mango smoothie in the popsicle mold or ice cubes tray ...Freeze
In the photo, I used the muffin mold .
Later , there was a metal taste or smell when I ate them.
Not gonna use them again.. Maybe a silicon mold will do better.
For Mango Puding.
I mixed 1 packet of Nutrijell (Halal gelatin product from Indonesia, made from seaweed )
and 1 packet of agar-agar mix with sugar ( about 1 1/2 cups ) ...
then added 4 cups of water and 1 1/2cup of skim milk...
put everything in a pan and boiled them together..stirred often..
( for Nutrijell and agar-agar the amount of sugar is about 2 cups ...
you can use less or more )
( the amount of combined liquid is about 7 or 8 cups .
I considered mango smoothie a liquid )
Before it was boiled , I added 1 1/2 cup of mango smoothie..
stirred and stirred again
When boiling, I turned off the heat.. add lemon / lime juice ( from 1 lemon/ lime )...
I pour them into the glass container/ pyrex/ plastic pudding mold...
Let them cool down into room temperature ..then put them into the fridge until cold
Enjoy !

A Dolphin Named Justin
We went to Taman Safari in Cisarua.
My kids loved the dolphin show
The pool used artificial seawater .
After the show , they got a chance to feed and shake hands
with Justin, the working dolphin.

Remembering Ria
On July 31, 2012, my beloved cousin Mariati Tani Lethem ( Ria ) passed away on a rafting incident on Tuolamne River
I A Time for Everything
1There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven—
2A time to give birth and a time to die;
A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.
3A time to kill and a time to heal;
A time to tear down and a time to build up.
4A time to weep and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn and a time to dance.
5A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.
6A time to search and a time to give up as lost;
A time to keep and a time to throw away.
7A time to tear apart and a time to sew together;
A time to be silent and a time to speak.
8A time to love and a time to hate;
A time for war and a time for peace.
