BOWL FOR NUTS

This is truly a nut bowl -- made out of redwood stump. I know because my mom has the same one. She lives in Laguna Woods, California. When I visit her sometimes I stare at the nut bowl and wonder if it's the same walnuts as when I was a kid. Are they? Mom says no. 

The pig-snout center is for a nutcracker and little stainless picks.

TOO MUCH TIME INDOORS . .

Here's what we were thinking: 

If you need a sign telling you what season it is, 

you are spending too much time indoors

looking at your signs.
