Texans have some really big nuts.

Remember when I said ‘Texans have big balls‘? Well, they have some really big nuts, too.

Please drive slowly, our squirrels don't know one nut from another.

But they let me in anyway.

I went to the nuthouse. I know you’re all thinking, “Well, it’s about time!”

No, not as a patient! It was just for a visit thankyouverymuch. Besides, it wasn’t that kind of nuthouse.

But before we get to the nuthouse, I’m going to tell you about the World’s Biggest Nuts. And they’re in Texas, of course.

Seguin, Texas, Home of the World’s Largest Pecan. But which one? There are three and this is the small one.

Pape Pecan’s entry into the World’s Largest Nut contest.

The World’s Largest Pecan, Seguin, Texas. I’m pretty sure this one really is the biggest nut in the world. Well, as long as they aren’t counting humans. If they are, I’d like to nominate an ex-boyfriend or two.

I told you Texans had big nuts.

What do you need if you have a lot of big nuts? Some big nutcrackers…

Very likely the World’s Largest Nutcracker

The Pape Pecan Nutcracker Museum in Seguin, Texas boasts over 8,000 nutcrackers and nut pickers. There were so many photos from my visit to the museum, I decided to add them all to a slide show. Don’t miss the Naughty Nellies – feminine figurines that crack the nuts between their legs. I am not making this up.

My family used to have one that was like a big thumb screw. I don’t recall ever using it on any nuts… usually only thumbs. OK, specifically my little brother’s thumb.

  When I read the first sentence I thought you were referring to something else. Glad that wasn’t it.

I have cold beer in here and bring those nuts!

  I think we have to go to them since they’re rather hard to transport at that size. Bring a hammer and chisel along with the beer.

Aside from your natural affinity for all things NUTS how do you find these wacky experiences? we’ll now have to make another trip to Seguin!

  These adventures find me. I must give off a scent. Other than the nuts, I don’t think there’s much in Seguin. Oh, except cows.
