Sunday's not the day for physically demanding work in the garden. I did manage to mow a bit of lawn this morning, but then sitting on a mower isn't hard work. This afternoon I shelled walnuts.
There are two big old walnut trees in the garden, and although they survived the drought this summer well enough, they have only made very small nuts. Hardly worth the effort of shelling them. But there are some young trees about and they have produced lots of nuts of good size. I spent about five minutes this morning under the young tree in the pic, gathering nuts, and about an hour this afternoon shelling them. Accompanied by Miles Davis and his quintet, who were Workin' and Steamin'. That sounds like hard work; rather them than me.

I think the walnuts are waiting to be added to a delicious recipe.
