Nuts... not as in crazy...... although sadly I do know some people who are..but that's another story!
No, the nuts I'm referring to are these:
Our very first harvest of almonds!
You can see the fruit/hull which is sort of like a dried up peach/apricot, it's not edible, but I wouldn't want to eat it anyway - it is tough and leathery! This fruit splits and inside are the almonds (pits). These have to dry for about a week or until an audible rattle can be heard and then it's time to crack them open and see what's inside. Will keep you posted!

That is very, very cool. How exciting!
that is so awesome! I have never seen how almonds look when they come off the tree.
