CocoNUTS

Yesterday we opened the coconut I talked about in my last post. I had no idea how much work it would be. I hope Jayson appreciates it. I also hope he never wants one again.

Devon started out using a nail as suggest by someone on the Internet
He didn't think that was going to be a big enough hole so he got out a screwdriver to use. It started to crack, so he stopped pounding.This is how much liquid was coming out.It was taking too long so Devon got out a straw to help the process.Then you have to break away the inside from the outer shell. It took FOREVER!!Then you have to take all the little pieces and peel away the brown skin from the outside.Ta Da. The finished product. After a run through my food processor grater
