Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...

These nuts are ALL over our block right now.  That's one thing I love about Vancouver.  We have nuts on trees.  The one thing I don't love about this however, is that it's possible one might hit you on the head.  I find myself kind of ducking/wincing when I hear them fall.  Today as we were driving to the airport one hit the sunroof and it literally felt like I squirrel had just hucked it at us.  BUT they make a great centerpiece if you can collect enough... AND I just found out you need to dry them otherwise they will mold.  Which is rather gross.
