hammer...I had no idea that there was so much involved in the in the proper preparation of pine cones for consumption. I'll have to give them a try using the proper preparation techniques.

I have indeed had pine nuts, and enjoy them in the salads my wife prepares.

All this talk about pine nuts...does anyone remember Euell Gibbons?

Now that is a flashback.
We love pine nuts at our house. The wife keeps free ones and roasts some for various recipes. here the birds out front love them as well since they can pick them up all day from the pine trees on the property.

Just enjoying everyday

I'm old enough to remember him, Tom! Grape-nuts cereal. I used to eat the stuff every morning.

They sound like an endangered species!

Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Beautiful art, Rob!

Terrific portrait of this lovely falcon, Richard! Love the setting.

Beautiful job of photographing this pair of wood ducks, fotoi!

Two excellent shots, Paul! Judging from the amount of drooling, I'd guess that this squirrel was enjoying a tasty meal. Not something I'd really care for though.

Thanks Mike.
After the Squirrel was finished the Pinecone resembled a fully devoured corn on the cob.
