Good morning everybody! Hope you are all doing well on this rainy looking day, here in north Florida. I happen to find rainy days calming to my soul, so to me it is a beautiful day.
I was starting out on a cool idea the other day, but I had to stop and put a hold on it for a few days. I was really excited to get this recipe started out as it takes six months to be completed.
The recipe is for a very strong coconut extract that does take it,s time to absorb the flavor of real coconut. I can only imagine a coconut pie, with some of this extract, poured into that pie!
Later when the time comes and it is done, I will post about it and show you a photo, if you are still with me, at that time. I do hope you are!
On to the reason that this recipe is on hold, now. This recipe calls for un-sweet coconut so of course I purchased a real coconut in the shell at the grocery store.
Well this is how the story goes. I needed to crack open the coconut to get the coconut meat out, along with the juice also. And then I needed to peel the dark brown skin off of it.
The coconut was scored with a slight line around the middle of it. So I took my little charlie brown hammer outside, along with said coconut, onto the porch concrete floor. And everytime I hit that coconut, it would bounce off the floor. It was bouncing about half a foot high. so I had to really hold it down with one hand and crack it with that charlie brown little hammer, with the other hand.
Well this is what that coconut did to me! It cracked apart just about an inch, just enough to grab the skin on my pointing finger. And it closed back up with my finger in it, Hurt!! Yeah it hurt!
I had to pry it back open with both hands to get my finger out! It was finally opened up now. There,s where the blood blister comes in. It was half the width of my finger and throbbing with plenty of pain.
So I put an ice cube on my finger and repeated this again, so the pain would stop. I do knot know why, but the blood blister went away and I did not have to deal with pain or infection with it for days, until it healed up. So that is the story on how to heal a blood blister. It worked for me.
Hope you come back again, as I post on Tue-Thur and Saturdays. Until next time we meet. Stay safe and well. https://www.wisdomforpennies.com #heal #extract #recipe
