March 2009

Since I'm leaving in a few days (I'm going to D.C. for the rest of the week), I decided I had to clean my fridge of all the food that might spoil during my absence. Also, a friend of mine challenged me to make something I've never made before, something requiring a special trip to the store, or a squash-based soup.

I told her that, since I'm leaving, I don't want to buy more food that might spoil. I didn't feel like eating squash soup either, so I finally decided to use an ingredient I've never used in cooking before: mangoes!
