“Ammachi! Ammachi! Could we make coconut barfi today?” Sooraj asked his grandmother.
“PLEEEEEAASE?”
“Hee hee hee! Only if you help me make it, eh?” replied Ammachi.
“YAY!”
“Ready?” shouted Sooraj. “Ready!” said Ammachi.
“We’ll only pick the ripe ones, okay? The ones that are brown all over…
Watch out! Here they come!”
WHOOOSH… WHUMP!
