since hitting the nutty nines, I was inspired to create a list! I had several options, I could make a kinky list about nutting (shout out @burntsunflowers for already being ten thousand steps ahead of me!), a list about nut allergies (interesting and could definitely come back to later), or one of my favorite kinds of lists to make, books with the word “nut” in the title! guess you’ll have to check this list out to see which option i went with 🤪

taking any and all suggestions!!

do you remember The Wiggles song “Fruit Salad”? or maybe “I Like to Eat Apples and Bananas”? what about any song from Veggietales like “The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything”?

this list is freshly harvested and full of books with (specifically) fruits and veggies in the title or on the cover 🌶️🥭🍒🍋🫑🥕🍓🍑🥝🫐🍇🥒

some are more appropriate than others 😈

as always, please feel free to suggest any books I missed!
