We've tucked the children in and put towels over our worm bin to keep the worms warm (They die when compost temperatures go below 4 degrees).
Our home is well insulated. Having lived in some really, really cold rentals over the years, I can't be more grateful for a warm home.
Our big girl was home today and she thought of trying a coconut. We bought two from the supermarket but they both turned out to be bad!
We tried one more from the greengrocer. With a screwdriver and hammer, we poked a hole to put a straw in to drink the juice. With some help, we used a hammer to crack the coconut open for the flesh.
Unsurprisingly, the juice and flesh of an older coconut isn't as tasty as that of a young coconut, but it was still an interesting project.
We also received a surprise on our doorstep today. Our friend Dom had gifted us a 3 month subscription box of carefully curated Japanese snacks, straight from Japan. Our second box arrived today!
It was so nice to have a taste of summer in the middle of a cold spell! We're enjoying these treats very much.
