UT, I don't know about walnut stain, but it's extremely similar to walnut ink that's used to age paper in papercrafts.

I've got a dozen huge Black Walnut trees. When the nuts drop, the husks are almost the size of a baseball. The husk has a thin green skin covering the pulp which is almost black. They don't have to lay on the ground very long to become very mushy at which point it's almost impossible to pick them up without breaking the skin and if the juicy pulp touches your skin, you're stained a lovely walnut. That's it, end of story, it's not coming off, lovely walnut until that skin sloughs off.
Michael Jackson needs Black Walnuts. :guinea:

404, that snow pict brings back somewhat mixed feelings...this will be the first winter in the last 5 that I have not been in CT....miss the snow but damn the 84 degrees in SoFla today felt pretty good :)

guess I could get a picture the next time one of the fronds fall off one of the palm trees .. . :p

Yeah thanks FD, very funny. :eyebrow: Just remember though, next time you're sweating, cursing and fanning yourself with that palm frond in the 84 degree humidity my air conditioning bill is $0.00 right now... ;)

now where the hell did I put those damn snow shoes...

ok...then what is your gas/oil/electric heating bill like ?

My house up in Manchester was insullated well so our gas bills never exceeded ab out 190 during the absolute worst winter month....my electric bill here was right in the same range this year so it all works out. This house has 10 foot ceilings throughout the entire house (even the closets, go figure) so it is a lot of air to cool.

And like I said....I MISS the snow already .... really!

Well that, of course, is a different story. I try to stay warm by vigorously shoveling all that snow....oh, and burning the oil and electric bills in the fireplace helps too. :blush:

Black walnut pulp has been used for fishing. Pound them up, then put in water. Fish come to top. Trust me.

Nice last night, was cool & misting rain at Anvil shoot.

Just remember though, next time you're sweating, cursing and fanning yourself with that palm frond in the 84 degree humidity

Psh, you say that like 84 degrees is hot...

84 degree's is hot, it's gotta be below 50 for me to be comfortable.

Well, considering it's the middle of November and 24 degrees here in CT right now...it's a safe bet FD's not going to breaking out the snow shovels anytime soon. :cool:

:cool:
