Fruitful

A few weeks ago it was harvest festival time, Thanksgiving in the US. Here, however, the season of plenty has begun. This year the trees are dripping with lychees, and even mangoes are plentiful! The lychee season actually causes chaos, tons of lychees are shipped to Tahiti, by airfreight or boat. Boxes and boxes, hours and hours queueing to send airfreight at the airport!

The upsode, while I don't usually have mangoes to spare, this year I've even been making mango tarte tatin, I usually use pineapple, but mango makes a very passable alternative, especially served with coconut ice-cream!
