Door 14 'N' is nutcrackers, I need some that are easier to use. I've a load of walnuts given to me and the combination of my little hands and the old scissor type nutcracker is not doing the job. There must be something better out there.
We used to crack brown paper grocery sacks full of walnuts for my grandma around the holidays. Such angry shells compared with pecans. But she did make loads of candied walnuts, so worth it in the end.

Door 15 hides an amazing dream that I actually get to see John Coe & Aquarius the last of the Scottish Orca pod. They are the last they’re both boys.
Other orcas do visit our seas but these 2 boys are a bit special

Behind the Oak door is an Outdoor covered area at the far end of the garden so that I can shelter from the rain. The roof collapsed on the previous one!

For some reason yesterday all that popped up into my mind was Orio's! I don't even like orio's but I am sure someone in the family will?
Todays door holds Pecan nuts which I do like!

Yesterday's O has to be an orange, there was always one in the toe of my Christmas stocking as a kid.
Today's P will take some thinking about. It could be wishing all good thing for 'P' but that's a bit finger down the throat sickeningly sweet, but vaguely true.
