Have I told you that we have a coconut palm right at our front door?
Well, we do....
...but Mr E and I have never grown coconuts before so we haven't got a clue how to assess if they are ripe or not.
The other day we thought it wouldn't hurt to cut one open and have a look inside.
Mr E looked for one he thought might be the ripest...
Aha! This is the one...
Now to open it...
A bit young yet...
...but still full of lovely coconut water!
Very refreshing to drink!
And full of wonderful things to help with hydration here in the tropics!
I'm rather chuffed that I have so much of this goodness waiting at my front door.
