| Nuts |
Nuts are in plenty this year, there having been more than sufficient for Hobbits, squirrels, and other creatures as well. Chestnuts are being roasted, and walnuts and hazelnuts are being hulled. Pine nuts and sunflower seeds in profusion are being placed in ovens with butter and salt. Nuts will be added to biscuits, salads, cakes, and breads, as well as being placed in bowls with raisins, sultanas, dried cranberries, and cherries to be eaten by the handful. Some may even end up in a jelly or two. No Hobbit will go unsatisfied tonight for the taste and crunch of nuts! |
