That old chestnut?


If I hadn't taken this picture myself by way of a brief diversion last night from slaving away on a mid-winter Christmas dinner I would never have looked at this red-ripe image and thought: 'That old chestnut!' No indeedy. I would have have thought monkey brains or bottoms at the very least. 

Who knew an 'umble nut could be so grisly and ghoulish? Not I, but then I don't know everything about nuts. 

Fortunately, our mid-winter celebrations were only slightly delayed (burnt) by me ogling my nut; effective multitasking if you ask me. 

Happy Chestnut!
