next time I am in central London I am going to have to get some roasted chestnuts from the street vendors. I love those guys they give the city a real holiday feel this time of year.

Almonds, roasted and salted.




:purpdance:

Update - I got my chestnuts today! They're soooooooo good, and BIG! These are just the medium ones, I'd love to see the jumbo size!

Peaches I tried roasting about 7 of them and it's not for me. Tastes way different. They did come out of the shell and skin super-easy, though.

If anyone's interested it's Allen Creek Farm out in Washington and their site is http://www.chestnutsonline.com
They only ship on Mondays and Tuesdays but send 'em UPS express - mine went out at the beginning of this week and got here today all the way across the country (VA). :okthumb:

I remember as a kid driving by the WTC and seeing them finish up the very top of the buildings. Two of my best friends were very lucky to get out of there alive on 9-11, and two guys I knew from high school didn't make it out. :(

One thing I'll never forget was my aunt who was visiting from California. She was 86 at the time, and my friend and I (we were 21 or 22) took her for a drink one evening at Windows on the World. We just sat there talking at a nice table overlooking the Statue of Liberty. She told us all these stories about how she came to America when she was a little girl, how she met her husband, etc... To me and my friend it was simply something to do with my visiting aunt, but to her apparently it was much more... Some years later I went to visit her, and everyone I met said "oh, you're the one who took her up to Windows on the World?" And until she died she always asked me how my friend Paolo was doing. "Such a nice boy..."

I haven't had the heart to go back to New York since...

Of course a vooman nut is always good.. at least that is what Tony tells me..

Heavily salted cashews.

Looks like the cashews have it on this board... sadly, I recently developed an allergic reaction. They used to be my fave too. <_<

Why... yes, Sharky. Those are very good. :okthumb:

We at NationalNet love the Nutty Bavarian. :awinky:

I love Brazil Nuts. I believe there's another, more common, name for them, but I cant recall it right now.

Afro-American Toes :P (PC)

I like all kinds of nuts they are my favorite snack. But until I have the tummy monster I cant eat them. :(

Does bustin a nut count?
