Aunty Marj - the parsnip wine thread - KimKat's! :-) Joy

Coconuts, parsnips, brussels sprouts, cabbage and broccoli are all good for you and I like them all, but not necessarily eaten in the same meal! nell

I have Coconut Palms in my garden!!!! The mats are made from the stuff (technical term there!) around the trunk!!! lol Taste good though but I also like parsnips!!! Jacquie xxxx

Jacquie ;-) me too lol updating me too means love parsnips I don't have Coconut palms :-( Rice and Peas aint nothing without coconut milk. ;-) Sundays aint nothing without Rice and Peas lol. Hope you are well Jacquie and Poppin too? I also hope Marley's skin problem was sorted in the end... yuck, just thinking about what your saw under the microscope makes me shivver. Ok anyone remember the late Nilsson song which I think is being used on an ad at the moment. 'COCONUT' from the Album 'Schmilsson' here's the lyrics always made me smile this song and I was very fond of Harry Nilsson as an Artist, he is missed. Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime His sister had another one, she paid it for a lime. She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up She put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, And said, 'Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache? I say, Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?' 'Now let me get this straight ', Put the lime in the coconut, you drank them both up Put the lime in the coconut, you drank them both up Put the lime in the coconut, you drank them both up Put the lime in the coconut, you called your doctor, woke him up, And say, 'Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take, I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache? I say, Doctor, doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I say, Doctor, dooooctor, to relieve this belly ache?' Put the lime in the coconut, drink them both together, Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better, Put the lime in the coconut, drink them both up, Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning Wouh wouh wouh wouh wouh .... Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime His sister had another one, she paid it for a lime. She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up, She put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, Say 'Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?

Thanks for the songs, CB and Pat. I think we have proof that coconuts are a Good Thing as songs have been decicated to them. And they are very useful for making Pina Colada. Where would Barry Manilow be without that song? Is there a cocktail made with parsnip milk? I think not. Gwynne

Ooer, don't know where I fit here, I love both Coconuts and Parsnips, and of course there is Parsnip Wine, often made by our Ancestors! :)

Pat! Snap! I've got that Nilsson album too!! CB >|< XX
