  4. CW: unpleasant attitude

    Setting to roast chestnuts from Spudshed.

    Remembering the Bunya Pines and Moreton Bay Fig trees, that were in the gone-wild strip between the Birthing Stone and the (landscaped) spring, on was for a long time a bank on the fresh water Swan River.

    To those who decided to kill the Bunya Pines and Moreton Bay Figs - constipation is too good for yous.

  5. Happy on holidays visiting a grove of chestnuts on a farm.

    England? No.

    North America? No.

    Am meandering around Nannup in Western Australia's South west. Beautiful region but have to head back to the Big Smoke tomorrow. 🥲

  8. Thinking of putting a sliver of butter, sea salt & a dusting of cinnamon in each after soaking & just prior to roasting... thoughts?

  9. I've been researching a cool (and timely) topic for this week's #SolarPunkSunday... #Chestnuts! So many uses! And #AmericanChestnut trees are making a comeback!

  10. I got my chestnuts in the mail today. They will be roasted, not on an open fire, trying to head that question off right now.

    Have any of you had roasted chestnuts before?

    It does for me! ‘Tis the chestnuts season!

  12. #SilentSunday

    Roasted #Chinese #chestnuts to share with Mom. Chestnuts are one of the best #nuts for #diabetics to eat. In small quantities, it's a healthy, #DiabetesFriendly #food.

  13. It's cold and wet outside and the leaves are falling. The perfect time for some roasted chestnuts to warm up!

  14. I do not understand why folks would plant #HorseChestnuts as #StreetTrees. If we are going to have spikey projectiles falling on people's heads, could we at least choose the non-poisonous variety?

  15. Sweet #chestnuts ! I keep finding them on our walks.

    They never used to grow naturally at my altitude. The big old ones planted intentionally rarely bore nuts.

    This year, EVERYWHERE.

    (I'd already filled a bag to bursting before finding these bigger, nicer ones)

  16. The chestnuts are falling off the tree. Now, it's a race between humans and squirrels to grab the nuts from their vicious burrs. You need to wear thorn resistant shoes to walk in that mess.

  17. How it started (biking to work through a forest with chestnut trees), how it went (a lot of peeling), how it ended (something delicious).
