a tough nut to crack.

Recently me and my friend, who is also going to Germany for 5 months, had, like we called it, prom night and invited all our friends to join our last night in Vilnius.
And one friend of mine as a leaving present gave me a coconut explaining that I'm a tough nut :)!
And the first thought that came into my mind was this blog post (!!) that I've read last winter:
When our friends Jake and Elizabeth started dating, she seemed very guarded, and he worried that she might never fall for him. Looking for encouragement, he asked three of her friends about her, and here were their crazy answers...
Her first friend's answer: "Dude, she's a tough nut to crack."
Her second friend's answer: "She's an uncrackable egg."
Her third friend's answer: "She's an impenetrable fortress."
How hilarious is that? And he had asked them all separately!
Well, against all odds, Jake did woo her, and when they got married last year, my sister gave them a present of these three original commissioned prints by Erin Jang. (See how the nut is cracked, the egg is cracked, and the fortress is open?) How cute is that?
