Saturday morning the sun came out and I sat on the deck cracking more of my pecans. Duane came out and took over the "cracker". He would give me a bowl cracked and I would pick out the nuts.

By the end, my thumbs were sore from pulling the cracked shells. Fun though, but glad it's done! Used a few, but most of them went in ziploc bags to the freezer. Will be handy in a week or two when Christmas baking starts.
Sunday we planned to go down to the boat, but ended up getting a late start....just flew over to Asheboro and went out for a leisurely lunch....pleasant but not too exciting.

Sounds like fun to me too - the MIL sent some (already shelled) nuts in the mail - wasn't that nice...
I can't believe you're wearing shorts - If I were sitting on the deck - I'd have on
Under-Armour
Snow Pants/Ski Bibs
scarf
hat
glove liners
ski gloves
thick socks
Sorrell snow boots
And a parka rated to 50 below - with the grim reaper hood pulled out...
...And I'd still probably be none too warm - I wouldn't have the dexterity to crack nuts either - at least my thumbs wouldn't be sore - haha.
Love,
T
