Thank goodness for YouTube- Henry.

Mama and Grams were feeling daring when they walked through the produce section of Walmart on Monday. (As if there really were something to feel daring about in the Walmart produce section- no bean sprouts!) But they came home with a fresh coconut from Thailand-which I can now find on the globe.
It really hit home tonight how much we rely on the interwebs. Good thing we can look up videos on the YouTube, or else we might not have ever gotten this coconut open. You have to slice off the husk down to the "nut" core, then strike it really hard with the heal of a heavy knife and pry off the top.
The result is wonderful, delicious coconut water. Mama says it's the health food rage right now. And we can understand why. It's absolutely delicious. Now we just need to figure out what to do with the fresh coconut flesh we scraped out. We put some into the banana bread we made tonight. does anyone have any idea with what we can do with the rest?
