A little entry about pine nuts and winter‘s last leg…We‘re having some of our last snow falls here in Bavaria, and it doesn‘t look like the UK is faring much better from all of this awful weather and the seasons swinging back and forth. We’re really looking forward to some warmer weather so to make everyone feel a bit better we came up with a new pine nut mix at the office that‘ll help give an extra boost to get through the next few weeks. Spring officially starts in just one week on March 20th and I don’t know about you but I can’t wait to break out the bermuda shirts and the tropical pineapple muesli. But enough about things to come and on to pine nuts!. These nuts do actually come from pine trees, there are a variety of evergreens that produce edible nuts but we certainly wouldn’t recommend trying the ones in your backyard! Ours are specially grown and prepared to keep their all their essential oils, vitamins, and enzymes intact for the greatest benefit possible. They have a smokey, mellow flavor and contain lots of essential oils and tons of protein, as well as lots of other things your mom always said is great for you. But we aren’t the only ones who know that, a lot of wild critters feast on these evergreen seeds squirrels, songbirds, and quail. Plus the Italians use them in pesto. So be happy, sing a tune, and pop open a can of winter’s last leg muesli mix and munch away the next week until the sun starts shining, the squirrels come out to play and everybody can finally get into their swimsuits!!!
