A nut for some seasons

The walnut is autumnal and wintry, the pecan for autumn alone; to spring belongs the pine nut and almond, and almond's cousins peach, plum and cherry to summer.

Hrm. I kind of feel like pine nuts and almonds are all-season nuts. Though almond + cherry is an awfully good combination.

I admit that one of the reasons I classed almonds in the spring is that one makes almond cake during Pesach (at least if one has any sense about one).

And just look at those blossoms!

Some seasons you feel like a nut. Some seasons you don't.

Almond cake is most decidedly a spring thing, I agree.
