         Mango Pico de Gallo sounds refreshing for some reason.  Of course, the tomatoes make it a no for me. A few weeks ago, I made a wonderful smoothie that contained mangos, peaches, and bananas that was exceptional. I guess a mango makes me think of something tropical, thus refreshing.  This would probably be a great snack for sitting around the pool.  Too bad I don’t have the pool, and can’t eat the dip.  Life just ain’t fair some days.

        

        

Random Reflections             

Sisters, Sisters

       This week was wonderful because I went out with all of my sisters. We met at a bar called Alley 64 in St. Charles. We had a sister’s night, and it was REALLY fun. We just laughed and enjoyed each other’s company.

         One of the sweetest parts of the night, was that the bill was paid by my brother-in-laws, Greg and Rick. What a kind and thoughtful thing to do!

         If you have never been to Alley 64, I strongly recommend this place. The girls ordered hors de oeuvres, and I had a yummy chop salad. The food was very good. The salad was so large that I ate half for dinner, and the other half for lunch the next day. 

         I am so glad that we met for dinner. I am so blessed to have three wonderful sisters!
