I read in this morning's newspaper that today - August 18, 2020 former First Lady Rosalynn Carter is 93 years old. She was born on this date in 1927.
Husband and former President Jimmy Carter is 95. They have been married for 73 years.
Jimmy is widely known as a peanut farmer and the presumption is that peanuts would have been a large portion of their diet and since Jimmy and Rosalynn did and do everything together...
Incidentally a peanut is not a "nut." It is (technically speaking) a "legume" which is an edible seed in a pod - examples are lentils and peas.
If I'm right (always a dubious supposition) then don't save peanut crunching for just a baseball game! Look at the Carters and hit it! L Chaim!
