Chris Slade describes the son et lumiere presentation at the abbey of Bon Repos called "Le Pays de Conomor" in Brittany, which takes place during the first two weeks of August.
Walnuts
October is a busy month for harvesting fruit and nuts. I have been picking walnuts for over a month now.
I have to be quicker than birds and squirrels!
Nuts drop naturally when their husks soften around September/October time.
This year, they were about 2 weeks early because of the hot weather we have had in Brittany.
You don’t actually pick them from the trees. If some nuts are on the floor still in their husk, use gloves, otherwise you will get black fingers and nails for days!
My neighbour’s walnuts are huge!! See the photo!
I will post recipes with walnuts on this blog soon.
