This picture shows just a small portion of the acorns that are available here in Florida for any squirrel who does not have his acorn butter made yet. The acorns on the live oak trees, which is what grows here, are smaller than the ones on the oak trees in New England, but this is obviously a really good year for acorns. They fall on my roof when the wind blows and crunch under my feet when I walk out the back door to go to my car. So far I haven't seen many squirrels, so, come on down.

As kids in PA, we used to make little pipes, using larger acorns, for the bowl. Don't think I was able to get many dried 'leaves' into the bowl! Later we would get my Dad's pipes and smoke leaves. What an awful taste and it felt like my mouth was on fire from the rapid burn. Also glad we didn't know what drugs you could smoke!
