nut-thing
Thalia trilled, “Nothing comes from nahhhh-thing, nah-thing ever could —”
“Sound of Music, eh?” Cal winked. “I’ll match that with… I’ve got plenty of nuthinnnnnn’… and nuthin’s plenty for me.”
“Porgy and Bess,” Urania sighed. “I suppose even muses — need the occasional day off. And yet — here we are — nicks and all.”
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.

I'm a cashew, almond, Brazil nut, macadamia pistachio, sunflower, and/or pecan fan. I don't know if it was the excess of walnuts as a kid or the actual manual cracking I had to do or the taste or what, I'd be fine never having another walnut.
I suppose "nuttin' comes from nuttin'" would have not worked in the Sound of Music. I gasp to imagine that coming out of Julie Andrews' mouth! As it's obvious your four are up and nicking and wording, I'll wish happy rides with Albert! Chains for your bike tires?
