My friend Akie brought me this most gorgeous mango,
when she & Miki came to visit me this past Saturday.
I decided to use it in a still life painting, before I consider tasting it!
For contrast, I included a porcelain chopsticks holder, a fish-shaped “hashioki”,
all setting on my earth-toned, batik-style tablecloth…
On Saturday, July 28th, as Typhoon #12 approached,
I had a nice reunion visit with my 2 dear friends, Miki & Akie…
We met early enough, before the storm arrived,
and caught up on each others news, since last we met…
