How to Cook a Bug

A video link for myself to watch later on a computer that has sound. Since Max in the novel'verse has been going on in my head recently about cooking bugs.

Ah. And an article to go with the video.

Green Thumbs: Just Me and My Watering Can

Post-work, I went to the community garden. Now, I know that now that all the plots are claimed and dug and people have put their plants in, there theoretically isn't as much work to do. Just watering and weeding, right? Well, unless you're me and are doing staggered plantings for some things and the hand-watering from eight gallon jugs of sun-warmed water for certain of your crops.... Still, it's eerie to so seldom see anyone else there. Though there was a squirrel feasting on the dried sunflower head someone had put up on the fence. And I saw Mr. Hummingbird again on Sunday, checking me out from several angles less than two feet away. Still, few to no people.

Anyhow, I have six summer squash plants and harvested my first squash from them today. Yellow and green zucchini, pan-fried in just a little olive oil and seasoned with simple pepper and a touch of salt, for dinner veg, yum!
