Love peanuts! This would make a great jigsaw puzzle. What a great gift along with a bag of peanuts and some beer!

Back in time. We use to eat them together in our family on saturday evenings playing family games.

Oh, how I love them but I can only eat a few at a time...my stomach does not like them so I limit myself but I could eat this whole thing if I could!

Once a year I make and Indonesian Resitafel and I make peanut sauce for sate. A lot of work but worth the effort. Very nice image.

So underused in our cuisine.

Great shot. I prefer them roasted and salted, then salted again - yes I know its bad for me.

My mum would buy about a ton of these (we called them monkey nuts) and we'd spend hours (maybe it was days and weeks....) stringing these together to hang up in the trees for the birds in the garden. Lovely lighting Margaret, and lots of lovely detail too

I'm not a lover of peanuts though I do like most other nuts...made a fine display for your shot, Margaret.
