Our own fairly young tree produced about 30 walnuts and we had some
today. Normally, I'm not mad about walnuts because they dry my mouth
and can irritate my throat. But these were white and sweet and
delicious. A treat!

Have you got brown fingers now?

No. Ray shelled them and the actual nut is white!

We had a large walnut tree in our garden, when I was child. It's
removing the green outer layer that covers the shell that turns
fingers brown.


I'll get Ray to hold his hands out for inspection! ;-)


While you are checking that his finger nails are clean :-)


Plus the back of his ears and that he has a clean hanky! ;-) Last time
he went for a hair cut, it was so long that I told him to get an
estimate!
