Yesterday (12-08-09) was a pecan filled day. The wind speed here in Carlsbad were between 40-60 MPH all day long. Which was kinda good for us. It blew a ton of our pecans down from the trees. Tel and I picked about 20 gallons in only 20 minutes. That's how many there were, and so close together. But that is the easy part. Next comes the shelling of the pecans. So we turned on the finale of the "Biggest Loser," (Yah, I'm so excited Danny won) and started cracking. Between Tel and I we shelled about a quart size of pecans in about an hour. So that's not too bad. It barely made a dent in the bins full of pecans we have. But it was fun. Now I need to find lots of yummy Pecan recipes.
