Mum (and I - but how should I even deserve it man haha) was (singular past tense because I think I really don't deserve it, I only want the limelight hahaha just kidding) in the papers! What an amazing feat, isn't it! So proud of her. :) There was even a picture of us smiling at the camera, with different mango delights.
So the story goes like this. One day, we saw the notice posted by the TC on FB so we went to check it out and got ourselves a bag of mangoes. Can you imagine how lovely the mangoes smell? :)
That's right, my mama, the cook, the chef, the baker, the WONDER, whipped up several phenomenal dishes, ft. Mangoes. And as usual, she would share her creations. Hahaha the softcopy!- right, like I've said, technology will be the greatest, the bestest if you can download the food you see online. But lucky me, I get to eat my mama's food because she cooks it just for ME. ;)
The TC found her and contacted her, asking her to share these for a newspaper interview.. And my mum agreed. (my dad thought it was a prank? she wanted to turn it down. but i said she should give it a try. who gets to appear in the papers so easily hehe)

家住淡滨尼23街的家庭主妇张紫春(50岁)说:“我很喜欢烹饪,当我知道市镇会将在住家附近分芒果时,马上去排队要了一袋回来。没想到我丈夫从面簿上得到消息,也去排队拿芒果。这些芒果的品质都很好,很适合用来烹调各种芒果美食。”
