I like the rotary grater for coconut - you keep it pressed down with your knee/thigh on the floor and collect the gratings onto a bowl or newspaper - most convenient.

But your tip about using a sharp knife will certainly come very handy in future! :)<br /><br />I didn't realize one can grow chard and things like this in a pot! Thought roots must be deep. I should look up this garden stuff more before assuming it must be hard. :) Thanks SS blogs herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14277887171436832914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-25506172640300136832010-06-08T12:25:41.730-04:002010-06-08T12:25:41.730-04:00SS, you could plant Swiss Chard easily in a pot.
