What’s the problem with salted peanuts?

We’ve come a long way, baby!

This nutcracker and pick come from a set of about eight each that we’ve had all my life. I suspect they were a wedding gift to my parents. They’re definitely older than I am, in any case—and no comments from any of you whippersnappers!

Growing up in West Virginia we had black walnut trees. They have a very distinct flavor. They were so messy too because you had to let the outter husk rot off, then you dried them out. A horrible tree to have if you don’t plan on eating the walnuts because you’ll have a mess.

A lot of work for little meat, but the distinctive flavor was very good…

Ever have hickory nuts?

Yes. That tree was up our hollar, not in the yard, so we didn’t have to clean up after it.
