Oh, freedom
Is just another place to hide..."

Picked up some coconut for some ice buko for the office party, but in a sad oversight got the grated coconut instead of the shredded. So now instead of languid strips of coconut like ringworms preserved in jars (or for a more appetizing image, instead of coconut linguine noodles under a sugary white soupy drink), there will be craggy chunks of coconut, the texture of a malt.

And I added bananas too soon to the fruit salad. Best to wait til the last minute on those. They brown quickly, even in the fridge, even under orange juice.

Added some rum and amaretto to make them forget.
