True enough, Rob! A new month, a new day, and the future is right there in front of us - no turning back, I'm humming to myself! 
I've never had peanuts boiled, but even new, if they're fresh, they taste like peas - and hence the name! I used to wonder what they were, In Agatha Christie novels, the "ground-nut schemes" that people would go to Africa for, and either make or not make fortunes. I didn't ever know it was just peanuts! It still seems strange that anyone could make fortunes out of something so humble, but I guess they did, and maybe still do.
