Omega-3s and Stained Hands

Walnuts! I'd never seen them in their shell before. And who knew nuts could be messy? After peeling away the dark outer flesh we laid them out on screens to dry.

According to one site, a quarter cup of walnuts gives you almost all of the omega-3 fatty acids you need (i don't really trust "daily recommended values", but I do like eating walnuts).

If you're in the mood for more walnut facts and lore, try this article from a vegetarian web magazine. And remember, you are what you eat, so, go nuts!
