Mother fruit!

We bought a stalk of coconuts yesterday with 8 coconuts attached for 200 vatus (around $2).

I was tasked with carrying it home (Molly having lugged the giant bag of sweet potatoes home the day before while shopping alone).

Lacking a bush knife, here Molly demonstrates her architectural approach to cracking a coconut.

Well done getting into that coconut Molly - you need to buy yourself a machete!

That flower inside can be eaten - did you try it? I forget it's name but I'm sure your kids that meet you after work will know. They are quite sweet to taste and they can grow bigger than that.

Very jealous while I read your exploits - I want to be back in Vila!
