Going Tropical


We brought coconuts home from Florida; the girls wanted to taste the milk inside. They waited two weeks not so patiently until Jack would crack one open.




As you can see by their reactions they were not instant lovers of the milk. In fact, well they hated it. "Mommy, it really is gross."






















OK this last picture is how Jack first tried to crack the coconut.... I just saw so many potential bad things happening. But no band aids were needed! As you can see even the dog was interested in what was going on.
After this failure ... Jack got a drill and made the hole for the straw. I don't think this is how the islanders do it, but it was effective.
My only hope is that our family never gets stranded on a deserted island....we would have no drill and if by some miracle we could ever open a coconut I'm sure we would be told, "Mommy it is really gross,"
