This christmas we had a big bowl of walnuts as we always do,its a spanish tradition at christmas and we all love them.One afternoon Jess was very busy chasing something around the room,and by the sound of it against the floor,I thought it was her little plastic bone,but it wasnt.
Later on I found walnut shell on the floor in her bed and the next day I found more behind the couch and I panicked thinking that she was getting the walnut shell from the trash.
I covered the trash and didnt think any more of it until my husband called me into the living room a few days later,he was whispering and wanted me to see something that Jess was doing.
We hid behind the door and there she was throwing a walnut into the air until on one of the falls it cracked.Then she took it to her bed,ate the walnut and left the shell on the floor! lol.She had been getting up onto the living room table and stealing them!!!
I gave her another one after that just to see if it wasnt a coincidence and she opened it again,leaving the shell behind! I guess I have a little beaver in the house lol.Even I cant open walnuts without a cruncher!
