update- i made this again yesterday using 1 c of water and it worked out much better. i kept all the other ingredients the same and used eggbeaters. the mangoes were ripe and this was very sweet and refreshing.3/10 former review: ( i'm not going to rate this recipe, it didn't really work for me. i did go buy a new ice cream maker and all for this, but after following the instructions and using the ice cream maker for the max of 30 minutes, this had the consistency of a slushie. i did put it into the freezer, but them it got too frozen to eat. when i tried to defrost and remix it the next day it was like a slushie again. i checked some other recipes, including the one that came with the cuisinart ice cream maker that i purchased, and it recommends 1/2 c of liquid, instead of 2. sorry this didn't work for me, i usually enjoy your recipes/ — Mar 4, 2006)

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career.
Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
