@Starr Shine? I’m going to take a guess here: Milk in plants are from plants that grow in the ground. An orange grows from a tree…. Can you tell I’ll never be a scientist?

Milk is the product of the mammary glands of mammals used to suckle their young.

Plants do not produce milk. They can be used be used to create “faux” milks.

Coconut milk (which shouldn’t be confused with coconut water), for instance, only exists with the intervention of man. It is the grated white meat of a brown coconut mixed with water.

Soya milk involves drying the soya bean, then soaking and grinding them in water.

Plant milks are the result of food preparation and are not produced by plants.

Don’t ever, ever, think about or look words or letters for too long. I literally have really deep conversations with myself, like:

How were letters made?

How were words made?

How was the alphabet made?

Who came up with what letters would look like?

 

Jeez, the stuff that runs through my brain at 10 at night. This is the type of stuff that keeps me up at night

Coconut ‘milk’ is used in a lot of Thai dishes…….Delicious and creamy Massaman…….Green and Red curries ……..Coconut and chicken soup with lemon grass galangal and lime leaves……….

They sell coconuts on the beaches……..Whole thing chilled a straw for the juice and a spoon to carve out the ‘meat’……..Refreshing!

You can live on Coconuts for a while and apparently they can be used as an emergency transfusion.

But I think a lot of people are killed each year from sheltering under a coconut tree and having one crack their skulls.

Can’t avoid parking my car under these trees all the time, but the staff are pretty good at harvesting them before they can cause damage.

Though I do get concerned when there’s a tropical storm brewing……As I recall what the Hurricane said to the coconut tree……’Hang on to your nuts boys, this isn’t your regular blow-job”

Coconut milk is the bees’ knees, figuratively speaking, in curries.

I had heard that. Maybe that’s where the saying comes from?

Yes and I also know that in the fall, worker bees will push the drones out of the hive and they have to fend for themselves which they can’t do since their ‘tongues’ are too small and they have no stingers so they starve to death.

The Beach Boys first single in the UK, ‘Surfin’ Safari’ was released on the 5th October 1962, the same day as the Beatles ‘Love Me Do ‘ and the first James Bond film ‘Dr. No’.

I learnt that a few days ago but forgot to post.

Well, you can, but people might look at you funny if you do.

I call it OJ but you can’t call it milk just because you want it to be milk. That doesn’t make it milk. Milk is a state of existence, not a state of wanting.

All I gotta do is change the language and boom, juice is milk and milk is juice.

If you changed the names milk would still be milk and juice would still be juice. They’re not going to stop being who they are just because people start calling them something new. That would only leave them both confused and may cause serious trauma and misconstrued senses of self-worth.

Today I learned that the EU have released really interesting guidelines on the sale/usage of candles, which include:

  • ‘Never leave a burning candle unattended.’
  • ‘Burn candle out of the reach of children and pets.’
  • ‘Do not burn candles on or near anything that can catch fire.’

Thank you EU, it’s great that you invest time and money into these serious, burning issues.

Why can’t you leave a burning candle unattended? If it’s already away from things that can set fire I don’t see what the issue would be.
