What the Hell Am I Up to Today.

Why I’m trying to get this young coconut open, you see.

This is my second young coconut. Getting these things open is no small task. Considering the ones in my bra aren’t so young anymore I was inspired to try, try again. And a special thanks to Linda for additional inspiration and her fabulous idea to use a mallet instead of trying to cut this thing open with an axe and keeping my hand behind my back to ensure “I don’t lose it”, as Natalia Rose would say.
It’s a small miracle I didn’t wake the children pounding on this thing this morning.

Tic Tac Toe anyone?

But it worked! I knew I was getting close when got splashed in the eye with coconut water!

No, not something I have to drop off at the lab today for analysis, just fresh coconut water.

And the scraped out coconut meat that I’ll figure out what I’m going to do with later.

I downed my nutty water and then downed some dog. OK that didn’t come out exactly like I’d imagined. Just trying to find a nice transition to say that I went from drinking coconut water to 40 minutes of Gentle Hatha yoga.
Coconut, yoga, what’s next?
Breakfast cookie. What else? Well, I suppose green juice would have been a possibility.

This one was as good as my cookie on Monday, using less liquid is key!
Today’s I made a pot of herbal coffee. I found this Teeccino in the cupboard yesterday when I was scrounging for lentils. I bought this a long time ago and decided to make some today.

And now I remember why this is still in the cupboard.

It’s not that bad, but it’s not coffee either. I keep picking up my cup thinking it’s coffee and then I remember.
It’s sort like picking up a cup you think has orange juice in it but you don’t realize until after you took a sip that it’s really milk.
Now I’ve got to go make a pot of real coffee because this stuff is such a tease.
