This year, we have this:
despite this:
Yep, our dog likes to eat walnuts. You walk barefooted on our lawn at your own peril. At the worst you'll step on a piece of walnut shell that is razor sharp; at best, you'll step in the digested leftovers that result from a canine eating an immeasurable number of walnuts, many of them unripe.
Not only does Kielsie eat walnuts but she also helps herself to the plums from our tree. Notice I said, from the tree. She doesn't wait for them to fall - in fact, she's not interested in the ones that fall to the ground - she chooses the ripest and biggest and eats them straight from the tree.
We've noticed recently that she's extending her palate. We've been discovering these around the yard:
It seems that Kielsie has now developed a taste for our apples. And as with the plums, she's only interested in the ones that are still on the tree.
It will be feijoa season soon. These delicious fruits are ripe when they fall to the ground. Pick them from the tree and you'll be disappointed in the taste. This means that there's a measure of hope for us. Not only are the ones on the trees too high for Kielsie to get to, but since she's not interested in the fruit that falls to the ground, we might get to enjoy most of this crop ourselves!
