multiracial acorns

[asakiyume]

I love the colors that acorns come in. Also, I just like acorns. I pick up one, and then I say, "Oh, and this one. Oh, this one too. Oh that one there! Gotta have that, too." I enjoy this as much now as I did when I was six with my grandmother.

And this is a great year for acorns--as for apples, as for hickory nuts. I think the fruiting trees are anxious to reproduce; I think last year's winter made them consider their mortality or something. Anyway, the apple trees are bowed down with apples, and acorns are lining the roadside.

Dropping massive amounts of hickory nuts would be my guess!

Did you eat the beech nuts?

I don't, but they seem far more easily edible than hickory or acorns. My grandmother used to save them in the shed, but never did anything with them, so the mice always got them.
