Coconut!

A couple weeks ago I was staying with my Grandparents with 2 of my other cousins. One day we went grocery shopping and came across this coconut on sale, we decided to get it and see what it looked like inside and better yet taste it. So when we got home my grandpa drilled 3 holes in the eyes of the coconut and we drained out the coconut milk. The milk, we decided, tasted rather bland. Then he sawed it in half and rinsed it out. This is what it looked like. (see picture.) We used a knife to shave off some of the coconut (the white stuff) and ate it. We decided that dipping it in sugar made it taste a lot better. : ] But all in all it tasted like coconut, which is one of my favorite foods. And I Then after we cleaned all the coconut out of the shell (it came out pretty easily) I sanded off the outside and a bit inside and use it as a bowl. I think it's the coolest bowl in the world. What do you think?
