Four happy things I need to share

Comments

Coconuts are totally hard to eat! I remember struggling mightily with one I bought when in Hawaii. Once we finally broke the thing open it was still a challenge to cut pieces to eat.

Ashwin kept saying, "In India, they just hack it open with a machete. In India, they stick a grater inside to scrape it..."

Hee hee hee! I'm sure you found these comments very helpful for the present situation not being in India. *nods*

Are you guys having any HP meetups in early August? I won't be too far from Atlanta then. :)

[stubefied_by_gd]

I don't know the date of the August party, but it's usually later in the month. How far is not far?

Yay for goodness!

That shininess website looks all kinds of awesome.

I don't remember it being hard to open coconuts when I lived in Hawaii, so either my mom must be really strong or she had some sekrit way of doing it (like a tool. Probably not a machete though.)

*loves you*

You were one of the people I thought of first when I saw that site. :)

Well, since you know things about coconuts, I should probably explain that it wasn't just the nut in the shell, but a not-quite-ripe nut still in that white husky stuff, so we had to saw through the white stuff and then stab open the shell.

Hey Stu. Congratulations on the glasses and the gift cert to the pottery painting place. Pottery painting Is Fun.

Craving a pina colada now...after catching up on your LJ.

Glad for your cheerfulness.

'lsfjasdlfjal butter knives are awesome. There's a weapon in aikido called the bokken, and before I knew the actual name I kept calling it "the butter knife." It does look pretty much like a big wooden butter knife.

Mmm! Coconut!
