A southern friend of mine is always taking me to task for the way we Yankees pronounce: pecan.

I love nuts, and gave them up when I was in weight watchers years ago, at their suggestion: WRONG MOVE. Not only are they delicious and filling (in SMALL handfuls) but they are healthy! Healthy as chocolate and blueberries, and lovely in a snack entwining all three. THANK THE LORD that something I like is healthy - lmao.   And I've slowly, but steadily, been losing weight as I've incorporated nuts in my diet. (Of course, laying off the Big Macs did no harm either ;D )

Walnuts are probably best for the heart. But I love Brazil nuts, Macadamias, cashews, filberts, really just about any nut.
btw Peanuts, as may have been mentioned, are not really a nut, they are a legume. I love them best when FRESH in the shell, and untoasted, which I can always find in roadside stands in Virginia, North Carolina, etc. but not up here.

awww did they get ground off by the sidewalk. poor doggie.



The perfectly roasted nut is so tender
its like butter with a subtle crunch.
The search for the perfect nut can be relentless.
Until you get that one or two sour bitter and spoiled nuts that makes you spit out the revolting pieces.

Those rotten nuts serve as my will power.
