so many local varieties but in particular nam dok mai (มะม่วน้ำดอกไม้) which translates to nectar mango. i feel a great sense of loss that i don’t have access to them anymore.
here in the States i make do with Mexican ataulfo mangos (they’re lovely). i have yet to try the famous alphonso mango of India.
i also love cherries and nectarines. omg and lychee! i’ve never had a good lychee here but in Thailand they’re huge and juicy and sweet

I agree with royallmonarch that proper mangos are not readily available in the States. However, I've never had a good peach without immediately thinking, "the worst mango from Thailand would KO this mf."
I would also say Lychee but it feels scarce even in Thailand. Seemed like Lychee would fruit for a single week and then be gone. Oh, but what a week it was...

if i can't have that, then Indian and Pakistani mangoes. Best. In. The. World. Sorry East Asia, but your mangoes cannot compare, I have had them, they aren't it, and that is one of many hills I'll die on.
...I also like longans, can eat a whole bag.

after five years of grad school and subsequent job search, i can finally say i have successfully changed careers 😭 i start my new job counseling kids at a community mental health clinic on Monday. yesterday was my last shift at the grocery store that was an escape from my horrible corporate job and a sustaining force throughout grad school. it’s so bittersweet to leave the sweetest coworkers i’ve ever had and the most fun i’ve had at work. it’s immeasurably healing to quit a job for only good reasons. my coworkers got me a cake, everyone wrote notes in a card, and the goodbyes throughout the day made my heart swell. i even got to tell the good news to my favorite instacarter 🥺 after i clocked out for the last time, my friends joined me for gelato at the cafe and we strolled the store for a final time, this time as simply a loyal customer.
