I prefer shaved ice with fresh mangoes when they're in season. Yummmm!

What I meant to say that it's not a rule at all, imo.

Okay, are we seriously arguing the origins of the fruit? Who cares?! It's like arguing the chicken and the egg. Now, I'll go and have myself some persimmons to ease my cough. Good bye Buckley's, hello delicious persimmons. =)

And we wonder why obesity rates are climbing.

This is mind blowing.

Oh man. Out of my 6 plants I only got about 6 as well. 2 large ones and 4 smaller ones.

I was hoping for a larger harvest this year so I can make yellow tomato sauce!

Man, have you guys even seen the outtakes? He's just like any other little kid! Relax. He's an actor.

Mmmm....lychees... Delicious. But I'm definitely a bigger fan of the mangos in Taiwan. Definitely can't compare with the ones being imported to Toronto!

Oooo Mister Donut is the best! The flavour and texture combination is to die for. I would prefer it over Krispy Kreme anytime, anywhere. I like the glazed version the best. I've tried other versions of the Pon de Ring in matcha and azuki bean; both were decent but not irresistible like the glazed. You just want more!

I really love this piece! I've been a long time reader of your column. Congratulations on finishing college! I'm done as well!
I didn't know that you were also born in 1987, so that is somewhat shocking to me.

I have to agree with some of the previous comments, I really appreciate the background story to smaller restaurants and eateries. Unless you're a regular, you don't really tend to hear these inspiring experiences.

@wunami
you definitely hit the nail on the head with the last comment!
