Coconut info

The coconut palm, that Big Ed brought home and J planted, has twelve or thirteen developing nuts around the crown. This makes the two that we already took from it look less valuable for planting and more edible. This palm believes in feast or famine. Feast is on the way.

It just has to get ripe.

What if the coconuts disappear? Maybe someone else ate them without your knowledge. You could dust for finger prints to find out who the mad coconut dasher was. Then again, the mad coconut dasher could wear cloves. Cameras, well then, she could wear a disguise. No. Yes, Oh no.

We will share if ripeness happens. No need for drastic measures ...

Soon, coconut pie, yessery Bob, coconut sugar free cake. I can imagine a lot that can happen to a coconut.

A coconut could have a little face painted on it, topped off with a Santa hat - and be a Christmas decoration - then be served up as pie for Christmas desert. Double the fun with one nut - oh wait, nothing personal meant to anybody!

o1 doc: That reminds me of the clock you told me about. The one that was turned into a Santa face with tinsel beard, blue eyes, and a pointed red hat.

Yers, I recall climbing on a chair to set that clock back on the wall after decorating was done. Older now and perhaps wiser - us'ns don't do chair climbing any more than we'd think of going up a rock wall! It's hard enuff to just walk flat-footed on concrete....
