Cracking Walnuts

Do you know how beneficial nuts are? Nuts help prevent cardiovascular diseases by lowering cholesterol levels, support brain and nervous system function, and strengthen bones and the immune system. They are rich in proteins, fats, vitamins, and fiber.

Recently, my friend brought me a huge bag of walnuts. He said it’s walnut season now and that they were freshly harvested. Honestly, the nuts smelled incredibly delicious and appetizing.

The shells were thin and easy to crack. I cracked all the nuts and started cleaning them.

It probably took me about an hour to clean all the walnuts.

A few of the nuts were really small and looked very cute.

There ended up being more shell than actual nut meat.

Now I have a bunch of walnuts!
