Mango and chili together is awesome. Try Mango and chili tossed with matchsticks of jicama and a little cilantro tossed in with it... I first thought the combination would bother me because of the opposing textures of the jicama and mango but it totally works.

I have to many things to respond to and I can't multi quote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mangoes.... I had a bad mango experience last night...was nice and squishy then cut into it and it was BEIGE I was super saddened. I heart a good mango and they are hard to come by.....

Steel cut oats. ... I just made them last night for my employer. Now that I know how to make them I'm gonna try it. He tried describing them to me...but some things are beyond description. Like cajun food...mmmmm

Breakfast.... I don't love to MAKE it...it's the only meal I really will only eat when I go out....(Unless I have pecan Honey Bunches of Oats...which I DO! )
I prefer goodies like french toast or pannycakes...(had pumpkin pancakes for the first time EVER while we were in Maine...omgggg) If I DO have eggs...they have to be cleverly disguised. I never like the texture of them....I'm a texture person...I like eggs in an omelet. I lovee spinach and mushroom and tomato...used to add bacon when I ate it...now i will put fake bacon in it...never thought to bring my own to the restaurant...hmmm....oh and swiss cheese...or pepper jack mmm but I have to eat every bite of egg with toast...to negate the texture. The only eggs I DONT have this issue with is hard boiled eggs....

That's all I can remember and all I have time for....

Love it. At the place that I worked at this summer, we made a Jicama Slaw. It was crazy good. Just shred the Jicama on a mandoline, a little thinner than matchsticks. Do the same with carrots. Soak the Jicama in cold water for an hour or two first then rinse. Then dress it with rice vinegar, water, sugar or honey, cilantro and lime juice. You can add a little olive oil if you want. Let it marinate for a day. Tweak it and make it your own!

Ok I just had a cookie that tastes like shortbread and is round. It has lemon in it. It is iced with lemon sugar icing. It is insanely good. Does anyone know what this cookie is called?

All I have is Lemon Drop Cookies: http://www.crisco.com/Recipes/Detail...peID=976&loc=7

Do you know what kind of cookie it is? (I mean drop, roll, press)?

And I think I would need said cookie myself to make a final decision .

Thank you! The cookie could be a rolled, cut version of the one in your link. The icing was almost clear and packed a punch of lemon. Real lemon. I can usually identify a cookie but this had me stumped.

LOL..you need a sample to deconstruct it huh? Ah the sign of a good baker!

Either the sign of a good baker, or a world class cookie eater

I could give you a run for your money on the cookie eating.

Ice cream too.
