Would it be feasible to grind dried coconut flakes?

I don't think so. But you can buy it at www.tropicaltraditions.com or
www.simplycoconut.com, and you can get the recipe there, too:

Oops - you're in the U.K., but here's a U.K. site:
http://www.tiana-coconut.com/

The recipes are still at the Simply Coconut website, though.

Thank you🙂

Curiously, I like coffee (caffeine) in the mornings before my bike rides.
Helps me get the intensity up after being asleep. I have read that for
some, it causes heart issues & such. Hence, easy to see why some would need
to limit it.

I'm not familiar with chicory.

Cool! A serious gym.....in LA, too. I went to some gyms out there several
years ago on a visit....Man...not the kind of place for me. Well, I take
that back....I do enjoy looking at cardio bunnies. What's wrong with me to
forget that! 🙂

Very interesting. Sounds as if Myra is BACK! 🙂

fromwww.dandyblend.com:
Dandy Blend instant dandelion beverage is the only instant herbal coffee
substitute in the United States that features both the health benefits of
dandelion and the rich, full-bodied flavor, smoothness and texture of real
coffee. Many say that, because it lacks bitterness and acidity, it actually
tastes better than coffee.

Thank you for the website! I'll have to try it out. I've learned a
lot about chicory the last few weeks, and I'm dying to try it, but I
can't find a local source for it. I ordered in some from Louisiana,
but UPS Ground is messing with me. 🙁

I kept kosher when I was married, but not now. I was never frum,
though. 🙂

I've got one of my chabadnik rabbi friends coming over this week to put
mezuza's up around my new place. I have the identity & "do" some of the
holidays but have never kept K and don't observer Shobbas myself (other then
usually taking the day off work.)

Back on-topic, I was thinking last night about doing the K thing. It'd be
pretty easy on low-carb & would probably help to keep me away from eating
too much cheese. What concerns me a little is that 1) What I can find in
terms of fresh meat and cheese is both limited and expensive, and 2) that
I'm just not... I hate to say it, but... the chasidic life really ain't for
me.

You know, keeping K, putting up mezuza's, next thing I'll be going to shul
ever Saturday, fasting for all the holidays & growing a long beard. In your
words, Oy Vey!

I buy mine around the corner at a local low carb store, but this the
website that sells the same brand:
