Khanom Thai

Today Noy, the apartment owner's wife, gave me a few Thai treats wrapped in banana leaves. She explained that inside the leaves was sweetened, thickened coconut milk, and inside the coconut milk was sweetened coconut "meat". Yummmmmm! They were very tasty--I don't want to think of the fat/caloric content!

Pictured below are the snacks in various "phases". You'll see what I mean.:)

And, entering the final phase (I must be crazy!)--maybe you'll have to vote on the best (or weirdest) picture!?

I think I would be leery eating that. It looks like it is making you turn yellow :)
