Coconut tree

Every time I visit Philippines one thing that I like to drink is the fresh young coconut juice!!! And my Uncle automatically asked somebody to climb up the coconut tree and get the young coconut.
 When the young coconut is on the ground somebody has to know how to make a hole because that's where we drink the fresh coconut juice. In this picture my nephew is eagerly waiting ...
That's how we drink the fresh young coconut juice no using of straw ^_^. That's  sweet and just so refreshing.












The birthday cake for my hubby. We had an advance birthday party for him today, he was surprised he thought it's only her  kids were there but his two sisters and brother came, the grandkids and great grandkids came too and cousins and nephews, about almost 40 people were there and I'd tell yah not everybody is present, talking about huge family that's my hubby's side ^_^






It's Palm Sunday today..and here is my tablescape today.

spiderman! much as I love buko juice, I always fear for the life of the guy who would climb the coconut tree to get it.

Happy MYM!

what a fun way to drink it right from the coconut. That is a long way to climb I'm glad some one did it for you

Leovi said...

Wonderful series of photos, ... that rich those coconuts.

Dimple said...

I have never had the pleasure of tasting fresh coconut juice, but I like coconut meat!

Happy birthday to your husband!

knittingtheblues said...

YUM! It isn't the same when you buy the coconut at the local market. Off the tree is best.

Miss ko na ang buko ate, sarap pati ng juice!

The guy who climbed the tree for you looks like he's all muscle!



SPLASH OF YELLOW

Splash of yellow,
Dash of gold,
Make me mellow,
Never old;
Keep my humor
In fine trim,
Always laughing,
Never grim.
