All the coconuts I drank :)

Bringing home the coconuts
Thank you for Ka'ala and Chris our Tongan neighbors who have given us a better taste of daily life in Tonga. Every Sunday in Tonga everyone catches a pig and they cook it while at church, then they come home and feast. Our ward had a Lu'au and Chris caught a pig and showed us how to cook it in an umu, (an underground oven.) He has also showed us how to weave baskets out of coconut leaves and my personal favorite he will climb the coconut trees and knock down the coconuts for us to enjoy the juice and meat. I can easily down like 5 coconuts in no time flat. I LOVE THEM. He sure is saving me lots of money, any where on the island they sell one coconut for $5.00.
This was Chris's birthday cake for Nate's birthday. Chris even ripped it open and ate the meat inside, the ears and we all tried brain. Yes, even I had a lick of the brain, it was like pork lard. YUMMY!! :)
