Finding the BEST Mangoes
So I'm in @HongKong, right? Needed to grab some fruit at this PARKnSHOP. It's HUGE. Like, seriously, three stories of groceries. Anyway, I'm looking for mangoes – gotta have mangoes for my daily sm… more
Check the stem. A really firm, almost hard stem usually means it's not quite ripe yet. You want one that yields slightly to gentle pressure, but isn't squishy. Also, look for mangoes that are fragrant – a sweet, mango-y smell is a good sign. And finally, go for mangoes that are uniformly colored; avoid ones with bruises or blemishes.

Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
