roasting

Roasted chestnuts are perfection on a winter evening.

It is, after all, winter, no matter what the calendar says. Winter begins after Thanksgiving. The wind knows it, even if we don't.

I roasted my chestnuts in the oven, in the absence of an open fire (fire hazard). One of them exploded with a pop like a far-off gunshot, but it tasted just fine.
