keeping one nut each named after the lovers and one nut of the girl's name on
the bars of the grate. If a lover’s nut cracks or jumps, it means that he is
unfaithful and will not be loyal to the girl. If a lover's nut burns or catches
fire, it shows that he has true love or respect for the girl. If the girl's and
the lover's nut burn together, it means that they will get married.
