LOL..... it would be just my luck for that to happen to me in the winter time...and I’d spend $75. to create a terrarium for it until I could put it out in the spring.:)

My problem would be making myself let it go. I have always loved little critters like that. When I was a kid I couldn’t drag enough of them home. Poor Mom!

Still not quite as bad as the sign I saw outside a hair salon recently: “Stylist needed——acquire within.”

I had a serious *Look ma...what followed me home* syndrome. LOL...it was my parents’ fault....coz they wouldn’t let me have a pet until I showed responsibility to care for it; goldfish and turtles excepted.

Another tangent....one of the best aquariums [we had many] we had was when I build one w/ the boys using all the critters we would net in a pond. Water scorpions, water boatmen, skimmers, small *fry* size minnows and blue gills...yada. Had to be one of *bestest* projects I did with the kids...most educational b/c I made them look up about all the critters. And the *stock* was free.

People try to make their kids like in plastic bubbles, avoiding all germs at all costs. I believe that’s why so many kids develop food allergies when they grow older, their immune systems were never allowed to develop properly by developing antibodies and getting enough “good” bacteria.

you are absolutely correct, even some bad bacteria enteruing your system is good because your body builds an immunity to it. I think that the little bottles of hand sanitizer, and the throw away papers that you clean the handle of your grocery push cart with, are going to lead to even more illness because nobody is going to build up a resistance yto anything.

Our grandchildren, while basically healthy, have had FAR more ailments than did our sons....our kids were into everything, all the time, and had few illnesses!

Why would ANYONE buy “ready-to-eat” salad in the first place? Yuck. It tastes dusty and unpleasant. How can you cut up lettuce and other salad greens, package them, then get them to the store and on the shelves, still tasting fresh? The minute you cut them up or tear them, you must eat them. Right then. Freshness is the key ingredient in any salad. spoken by a salad lover.

Would it be ‘politically incorrect’ to call that a Fruit Salad?

Inquiring mind(s) want to know.

I also figure the cow/steer eats enough grass etc to fulfill my ‘salad daily requirements’.

Never liked the name “Beefburgers”. There’s no such city as Beefburg . . .

It’s the UK so they had to differentiate beefburgers from horseburgers.
