Haha I'm currently transitioning into a Paleo lifestyle (well i have been eating fairly accurately for a while now without having known about being Paleo; being dairy-free, recently finally giving up cheese, etc) and getting my mum who I live with on board with me. I have noticed that you shop a ton at TJs which makes me super pumped since I do too; makes following your recipes all that much easier >;) I have a question though, where do you get your canned coconut milk from, and are you loyal to any particular brand? I haven't been able to find any and have been using So Delicious unsweetened coconut milk (which I already love) as a substitute in all my recipes. Thanks for all you do!! your little ones are darling. I am so happy I discovered you!!

Continue with a screw driver to break it in half/pieces, then put the coconut in the refrigerator for 1 hour...the coconut lifts right out.

Great ideas and having the boys involved is awesome. :-)Oh and as a side note, it's coconut water inside the fresh coconut. You get milk by shredding the meat, soaking in water and squeezing out the "milk" through a cloth. I watched my grandpa do this all by hand with a shredder he built himself so that grandma could make delicious treats with it. Man was it a LOT of work! Wish I had more than just mental pictures.

So I went to the grocery story and tested this theory. When I threw it in there, I totally forgot all about it and it started to smell. I lost all the milk, but but to my surprise, it toasted the meat! Voila! Instant Toasted Coconut!
