Ingrid, this is very nice. I have been thinking of a still life with walnuts for a while, but the problem is I can't find anywhere walnuts with their shelves!... Such a common thing so hard to find!!! So different with the good old life of villages!

You bought back happy memories. I used to live next to Walnut Avenue which was lined with walnut trees. As kids we would throw sticks into the trees and knock the nuts, still in the green shucks, down. Mum would put them in a metal box until the shucks turned black and dropped off. We could then eat the beautiful white kernels, peeling the veneer off first. No taste quite like it. I can taste them now, so thank you for the memory.
