Absolutely did... they did have the wheel, the cart filled with rocks,
and people to pull. They made a special cashew nut cracking tool by
making undersized depressions in the boards, so that the
shells cracked without damaging the nut. There's the reason yoose
haven't the brain of a bush man toolmaker. It's good some toolmaker
developed velcro or many of yoose couldn't get dressed. John has
velcro shoe closures, he can't tie a bow.

I have 5 black walnut trees in my yard and one just over the property
line on my neighbour's side. They are close to 50 years old and very
productive so I get a lot of them on the lawn. There are lots of
squirrels to gather them up but there are still lots sitting on the
lawn, so I have to raise the mower deck at this time of year. it can't
be good for the blades to be hitting those things.

prices.

I went through Costco a couple weeks ago with a friend and it may be
time for me to renew my membership. There are some good deals to be had
there. As for Bulk Barn, it is my go to store for herbs and spices but
you have to watch the prices on some of their stuff. It is not always
the bargain people assume it to be.

The same applies to Costco, I have seen things there in the food dept
that I knew were cheaper at Sobeys. What I particularly like about
Bulk Barn is their quality, top of the line.

I replied to you about cashews well before I said the nuts on the
picture of the cans don't always look like *picture* on the can. I know
the difference between cashews and peanuts. They don't look a thing
alike and they sure as hell don't taste the same.
