If there’s anything on god’s green earth better than a fresh Queensland mango, I’d love to know about it. Firm, silky, the taste of a golden spring afternoon. Absolute perfection.
They think so too…
What hasn’t even approached perfection this year is the performance of my beloved Georgia Bulldogs. I haven’t been writing about them, and clearly that has taken a toll as they’ve stumbled along to a 5-6 mark on the season. But they take on the hated Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Saturday. If there’s any hope of salvaging a modicum of pride, this is it. So, bygones be bygones Go Dawgs! GATA.
And while we’re cheering teams on, c’mon Aussie, c’mon, c’mon! No better way to start the Australian summer than a Saturday afternoon of test cricket.
And finally, our move date is less than three weeks away. I’m getting excited. And extremely stressed. Here are a couple of sneaky peeks from the estate agent’s website.

Wow! The new digs look great! There was something interesting about cricket on NPR yesterday, but I think they were mostly making fun of the outfits.

Got some painting to do when you move in?????
If you need a hand with anything, unpacking, minding kids, whatever…you know where we are. Only two weeks of school left so we’ll be at your disposal. Can’t wait to see the place!
Oh and what does GATA mean, for the rest of us?

First off, I have to say that seeing you post twice in a week warms the cockles of my heart.
I haven’t been paying much attention to the UGA football season, but each time I see UGA kids’ clothes, I think of your sweet boys. Any time you need some, let me know!
I can’t wait to see pictures of your home after you’re all moved in. And glad to see you posting!

I call a guy at work mango.
I can no longer think of mango as delicious … because the mango at work is not.

Admit it. It was the pig in the kitchen that sold you. And the jaunty angle of the microwave.

I haven’t visited your blog in ages (I know. I hang my head in shame) and discover you’re about to move to a new house. Wow, how exciting – and it sounds like you’ve timed it to be moved into your new home just in time for Christmas. No wonder you’re feeling extremely stressed (moving house is always stressful) but what a lovely present for the whole family!

That mango looks good. It’s pumpkin season here, and those take a bit of processing before they can be enjoyed.
Looks like the Dawgs punched their ticket to the ArmourViennaSausages.com Bowl, or somesuch. Good for them.

Hey you! I haven’t made the blog rounds in quite a while, and I cannot believe how big your boys are! They are so, so adorable, too.
Your new home looks beautiful! I know you must be anxious to move in. We have just started discussing selling our current home and moving closer to Jeff’s office. We haven’t even begun the minor repairs we would have to do on this house to sell it, and I am already dreaming of a new home!!
Oh yeah, and Jeff got to go to the Tech game this year. He said it was a good one!
